Git获取远程分支

Question

A few hours ago I created a new branch on my home machine (eg. branch2), and pushed it to remote. On another machine at work, I created the same local branch, but fetching remote branch doesn't update my local repo with git fetch . My guess is that my local branch on other machine isn't tracked. Should I add track to my local branch, delete local branch, and checkout on remote branch?

Answer 1

You need to rebase your local branch with the remote branch.

For this just do the following::

git fetch
git rebase origin/your_branch

This should solve your problem.

Answer 2

Git fetch only used to fetch the delta from the remote. If you want to fetch the remote content and want them in your working directory.

git fetch

Only fetches the delta only.

If you want to fetch the remote contents and want the changes within your remote repository.

git pull = git fetch + git merge

Try using pit pull and the results will be in your working directory.
