Remotes¶
Another dynamic reference which gets changed automatically (git fetch
). The
git remote reference points to the head commit of a branch in a remote
repository.
gitGraph commit branch origin/feature-a commit commit commit branch feature-a checkout feature-a commit commit checkout main merge feature-a
Example Git branch from remote¶
The full remote reference is refs/remotes/<remote>/<branch>
but can be
abbreviated to just <remote>/<branch>
.
For example:
git show --stat refs/remotes/upstream/main
# is the same as
git show --stat upstream/main
