How to update Git clone on local system?

I have started using Git. I have cloned the repo on my local system. I make the changes on the local machine and use git push to the update the remote repo. It works fine.

How to update my clone from the remote? I tried git remote update. It did not work, new changes does not appear. I just want to make sure I have recent copy of the repo before I get to work. How I can update the clone?

git pull origin master

This will update your local copy of master with the changes from the remote repo. If new branches were pushed to the remote repo, it will also update your clone copy.

In current GitHub nomenclature 'master' was replaced with 'main'.

So, the command to use is:

git pull origin main

If you want to change or update in your clone repository, then you simply have to write git pull origin main
