Programming Notes

Git fetch, push and merge

Lets say you created a new branch called “testbranch” on remote.

git fetch orgin

To fetch data from remote to local.

git merge origin/testbranch

To merge new “testbranch” branch.

git push origin testbranch OR git push origin testbranch:testbranch

Former is a shorthand, latter is simply saying to push local testbranch to remote testbranch.
