Pulling the changes from the remote Git repository

You must make your local repository up-to-date by pulling the latest changes in the remote Git repository before you committ and push your updated test assets to the Git repository.

You must have completed the following tasks:

  • Cloned the remote Git repository. For more information refer to the EGit User Guide documentation.

  • Ensured that any of your team members have updated the test assets and committed those files to the remote Git repository.

When you updated any of the test assets in your project, you might see merge conflicts errors while pulling the changes, if other members are also working on the same project.
  1. Open Test UI.
  2. Go to Windows > Perspective > Open Perspective > Other.
    The Open Perspective window is displayed.
  3. Select the Git option from the list, and then click Open.
    The Git perspective view is displayed.
  4. Right-click the remote Git repository from the list, and then select Pull.
You have pulled the new changes from the remote Git repository to your existing local Git repository.
You can publish your changes to the remote Git repository. See Publishing test assets to the remote Git repository.
