Git

1. To list remote branches: git branch -r

2. You can check them out as local branches with: git checkout -b LocalName origin/remotebranchname

3. Download a local branch and make a new branch from that
   git checkout -b newlocalbranchname origin/branch-name

4. Git pull
   

• In the simplest terms, git pull does a git fetch followed by a git merge.
• You can do a git fetch at any time to update your remote-tracking branches under refs/remotes//.
• This operation never changes any of your own local branches under refs/heads, and is safe to do without changing your working copy. I have even heard of people running git fetch periodically in a cron job in the background (although I wouldn't recommend doing this). A git pull is what you would do to bring a local branch up-to-date with its remote version, while also updating your other remote-tracking branches.
