How to get update from a remote repository?

use git pull URL.

Example:

# cd to my git project dir

cd ~/git/example_init

# pull from a remote repository

git pull https://github.com/example.git

# get latest from remote but without merging into local

git fetch --all

# rid of all local state

git reset --hard origin/master

git reset --hard

# delete all untracked local files and dirs. (DANGEROUS)

git clean -xdf
