btw, if you just run 'git fetch', it will just grab any new commits - it won't modify your working directory or try to merge automatically. i believe 'hg pull'

btw, if you just run 'git fetch', it will just grab any new commits - it won't modify your working directory or try to merge automatically. i believe 'hg pull' is the same - it just gets the new heads, it doesn't try to merge. you shouldn't need to stash/shelve just to get the new work.
- sshumaker 17y agoYes, but what use to you are the newer commits unless you bring them into your working directory? Typically you're doing this to get some code to help enable the feature you're working on.
