Ans- To fetch the changes from the remote repository to your local repository using Git, follow these steps:

1. Open your terminal or command prompt and navigate to the root directory of your local Git repository.

2. Ensure that you have added a remote repository to your local repository using the `git remote add` command. You can verify the configured remote repositories by running the command `git remote -v`. If no remote repositories are listed, refer to the previous instructions on adding a remote repository.

3. Run the command `git fetch <remote_name>` to fetch the changes from the remote repository. Replace `<remote_name>` with the name of the remote repository (e.g., `origin`).

For example, if the remote repository is named `origin`, you would run:
$ git fetch origin
This command retrieves all the latest changes from the remote repository without merging them into your current branch.

4. Git will retrieve the changes from the remote repository, including any new commits, branches, and tags. The output will provide information about the fetched changes.

5. To incorporate the fetched changes into your local branches, you can run various commands such as `git merge` or `git rebase`. For example, to merge the fetched changes into your current branch, run:

$ git merge origin/main
Replace `origin/main` with the specific branch you want to merge from the remote repository.
Alternatively, you can check out a specific branch from the remote repository using the `git checkout` command. For example:
$ git checkout origin/main
This command will create a new local branch tracking the remote branch.

By fetching the changes from the remote repository to your local repository, you can stay up to date with the latest updates without automatically merging them. This allows you to review the changes and decide how to incorporate them into your local branches.
