Git pull and Git fetch are the Git commands used to make changes and retrieve data. Let's see the key differences between them :
| Git fetch |
Git pull |
| The Git Fetch command downloads only new data from a remote repository. The Git fetch command is more like checking to see if any changes are available. |
The Git pull command pulls new data and integrates it with the current working files, updating the current HEAD branch with the latest modifications from the remote server. |
| The Git fetch command does not include any new information in your working files. |
The Git pull command combines remote modifications with those made locally. |
