NAME

   gbp-pull - Safely update a repository from remote

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

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

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.

   --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.
