Git Pull
Git Pull fetches remote updates, then joins the chosen upstream branch into the current branch by merge or rebase.
Another example
A developer checks status, pulls with the team's chosen strategy, and resolves conflicts before editing.
Main parts
- 01Branch or change set
- 02Review and verification gate
- 03Released result
Use it when
Use it when the upstream branch and join plan are known, and the worktree is safe to update.
Do not use it when
Do not pull with unresolved changes or an unknown default strategy. Pull is not a read-only download.
Name used in code
git fetch + merge/rebase Before you ship
Before publishing, check the exact repository, branch, target, and diff. Keep unpublished work. Pass review and CI checks. Record conflict and data-loss risks, release order, traceability, recovery, and rollback.
Outcome: Use Git Pull to release or recover the change safely, with a clear record. User context: A developer checks status, pulls with the team's chosen strategy, and resolves conflicts before editing. Delivery concept or operation: Git Pull. Why it fits: Use it when the upstream branch and join plan are known, and the worktree is safe to update. Do not use it when: Do not pull with unresolved changes or an unknown default strategy. Pull is not a read-only download. Delivery requirements: Name the code repository and target. List preconditions, changes, review and CI checks, conflict and data-loss risks, release order, and the rollback or recovery command. Repository safeguards: Keep unpublished work and a clear history. Do not run destructive steps without an explicit backup. Check the exact code diff and remote target before publishing. Acceptance criteria: Review the intended diff and pass all required checks. Keep the target version traceable. Practice failure recovery and keep published history clear. Evidence and limits (evidence boundary): It is official for that source. Other platforms or teams may use the term in another way. Unknowns to confirm: Repository, branch, team activity, release environment, approval owner, protected checks, and rollback target.

Release checks: Before publishing, check the exact repository, branch, target, and diff. Keep unpublished work. Pass review and CI checks. Record conflict and data-loss risks, release order, traceability, recovery, and rollback. Before changing code, report the evidence you found, gaps, severity, and the smallest safe fix.
