dolt-fetch: Fetch latest changes from a specific remote upstream repository.
$ dolt fetch ${remote_name}
try on your machine

The command "dolt fetch ${remote_name}" is used to retrieve the latest changes from a remote repository in Dolt. Here's an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "dolt": This is the command-line tool used to interact with Dolt, a SQL database with Git-like capabilities.
  • "fetch": This subcommand is used to fetch changes from a remote repository. It downloads the latest commits and updates the remote-tracking branches in your local repository with any new changes.
  • "${remote_name}": This placeholder represents the name of the remote repository you want to fetch from. In Dolt, you can have multiple remotes, each with a unique name. In this command, you replace "${remote_name}" with the actual name of the remote repository.

By running this command, Dolt will connect to the specified remote repository and download any new commits made in that repository since the last fetch or clone operation. The fetched changes will be stored in your local repository, updating the remote-tracking branches associated with the specified remote repository.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
