lab 41 Merging Pulled Changes
Goals
- Learn to get the pulled changes into the current branch and working directory.
Merge the fetched changes into local main
Execute:
git merge origin/main
Output:
$ git merge origin/main Updating c6d9ed3..21df587 Fast-forward README | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
Check the README again
We should see the changes now.
Execute:
cat README
Output:
$ cat README This is the Hello World example from the git tutorial. (changed in original)
There are the changes. Even though “git fetch” does not merge the changes, we can still manually merge the changes from the remote repository.
