To update your local Git repository with the new commits from the remote SSH server repository, you need to fetch the changes from the remote and then merge or rebase them into your local branch. Since you cloned the repository via SSH, your remote is already configured to use SSH.

Here’s how to do it:

---

1. Navigate to your local repository

bash
Copy
cd /path/to/your/local/repository

---

2. Fetch the latest changes from the remote

This downloads all new commits, branches, and tags from the remote repository, but does not merge them into your local branches.

bash
Copy
git fetch origin

(Replace origin with the name of your remote if it’s different.)

---

3. Update your local branch

You have two main options:

Option A: Merge the changes

This creates a merge commit in your local branch.

bash
Copy
git merge origin/main

(Replace main with your branch name, e.g., master or develop.)

Option B: Rebase your local changes

This replays your local commits on top of the remote changes, for a cleaner history.

bash
Copy
git rebase origin/main

(Again, replace main with your branch name.)

Summary of Commands

bash
Copy
cd /path/to/your/local/repository
git fetch origin
git merge origin/main   # or git rebase origin/main

---

Notes

• If you have uncommitted changes, either git stash them before fetching, or commit them first.
• If you prefer to always pull and rebase, you can set:

  bash
  Copy
  git config --global pull.rebase true

  Then you can simply run:

  bash
  Copy
  git pull
