Remote Tracking Branches:

• They follow this pattern <remote>/<branch>.
• origin/master references the state of the master branch on the remote repo named origin.
• Run git branch -r to view the remote branches our local repository know about.

When you clone your repo:

• When you clone into your local machine even though the remote repo has many branches you could only see the Main branch.
• You could see the remaining repo using git branch -r
• Yoou could switch to anyone of the other branch using git switch <branch name>.

Git Fetch:

• Git Fetch will ftech the remote changes from Github repo and bring it to our local repo.(not into working directory)
• Use command git fetch <remote>
• Gets changes from remote branches Updates the remote tracking branches with the new changes.
• Does not merge changes onto your current HEAD branch
• Safe to do at anytime

Git Pull:

• Pull is another command that we use to retrieve changes form a remote repo. Unlike fetch, pull actually updates out Head branch with whatever changes are retrieved from the remote.
• Pull = Fetch + Merge
• git pull <remote> <branch>
