Description: The ‘git fetch –all’ command is a fundamental tool in the Git version control system, designed to facilitate synchronization between a local repository and its corresponding remote repositories. This command allows developers to fetch all branches and tags from all remote repositories configured in their working environment. Unlike ‘git pull’, which not only downloads changes but also integrates them into the current branch, ‘git fetch –all’ is limited to updating information about remote branches without altering the state of the local branch. This provides users with the opportunity to review changes before deciding whether to incorporate them into their current work. The ability to fetch all branches is especially useful in collaborative projects where multiple developers may be working on different features or bug fixes simultaneously. By keeping the local repository updated with the latest references from remote branches, developers can avoid conflicts and improve coordination in teamwork.
