8: Pulling From A Remote Repo(Git Remotes)

Now that we reverted our local chatbot repo to an older version, the remote repo actually has a newer commit than our local repo. This happens often in projects when other people make changes to code, and push it to a remote repo. Here's a diagram showing which commits exist in which locations:

In cases where the latest commit in your local repo is older than the latest commit in the remote repo, you can use git pull to update the current branch with the latest commits. git pull will also update your working directory to have the same files as the latest commit.

In our case, we'll be updating the masterbranch, since the chatbot repo only has a single branch.

Instructions

• Pull the latest commits from the chatbot remote repo.
• Inspect the working directory and git history to see what happened
