difference between git pull and git merge branch code example
Example 1: difference between git pull and git merge
// If you want to bring your local repository up to speed with a
// remote repository use below command. It is the same as
// (git fetch + git merge)
git pull
// The below command is going to import commits from a remote repo
// without merging them, which gives you the opportunity to review
// them before integrating.
git fetch
Example 2: difference between pull and pull request
If you use git pull, you pull the changes from the remote repository
into yours.
If you send a pull request to another repository, you ask their
maintainers to pull your changes into theirs (you more or less ask
them to use a git pull from your repository).
