Git Command Execution
Categories:
less than a minute
Git commands like git pull
and git push
are executed against the Git repository that is currently in your working directory. So if you have two project folders, project1
and project2
, and you run git pull
in project1
, Git will pull changes from the remote repository for project1
. Similarly, if you run git pull
in project2
, Git will pull changes from the remote repository for project2
.
Each Git repository has its own set of Git objects (like commits, branches, and tags) that are stored locally in the repository’s .git
directory. When you run Git commands like git pull
or git push
, Git reads and writes these Git objects in the local repository.
So, if you want to interact with a specific Git repository, you need to navigate to the corresponding project folder in your terminal or command prompt and run Git commands from there. This ensures that Git is working with the correct local repository and remote repository.
