NAME

       gbp-pull - Safely update a repository from remote

SYNOPSIS

       gbp pull [--version] [--help] [--verbose] [--color=[auto|on|off]] [--color-scheme= COLOR_SCHEME]
                [--force] [--all] [--redo-pq] [--[no-]pristine-tar] [--ignore-branch] [--debian-branch=
                branch_name] [--upstream-branch= branch_name] [--depth= depth] [repository]

DESCRIPTION

       gbp pull  updates  the  debian, upstream and pristine-tar branches from remote repositories in one go. It
       checks if the update is safe (would result in a fast-forward merge) and aborts otherwise.

       If given on the command line the changes are fetched from the given repository otherwise the default  for
       repository is read from the remote configuration for each branch (in git's configuration).

OPTIONS

       --version
              Print version of the program, i.e. version of the git-buildpackage suite

       -v, --verbose
              Verbose execution

       -h, --help
              Print help and exit

       --color=[auto|on|off]
              Whether to use colored output.

       --color-scheme=COLOR_SCHEME
              Colors   to   use   in   output   (when   color  is  enabled).  The  format  for  COLOR_SCHEME  is
              '<debug>:<info>:<warning>:<error>'.  Numerical values and color names are accepted,  empty  fields
              imply  the default color. For example, --git-color-scheme='cyan:34::' would show debug messages in
              cyan, info messages in blue and other messages in default (i.e.  warning  and  error  messages  in
              red).

       --force
              Force a branch update even if this results in a non fast forward update.
              Warning

              Forcing a branch update makes you lose your modifications.

       --all  Update all remote-tracking branches that have identical name in the remote repository.

       --redo-pq
              Also rebuild the corresponding patch-queue using gbp pq.
              Warning

              This drops the patch-queue branch if it exists.

       --ignore-branch
              Don't care if we're on a branch or in detached head state.

       --debian-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the Debian package is being developed on, default is master.

       --upstream-branch=branch_name
              The branch in the Git repository the upstream sources are put onto. Default is upstream.

       --depth=depth
              Git history depth, for deepening shallow git clones.

       --pristine-tar
              Whether to update the pristine-tar branch too.

EXIT CODES

       When gbp pull finishes, it indicates success or failure with its exit code:

       0      Success.

       1      An error occurred during the pull, see the printed error message for details.

       2      At least one branch couldn't be fast forwarded.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       Several  gbp.conf  files  are  parsed  to  set  defaults  for  the  above command-line arguments. See the
       gbp.conf(5) manpage for details.
