Easy way to "git pull" in Visual Studio

Git Pull command for Visual Studio

Download the extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace or get the latest CI build

---

Always stay-up-to date with the latest commits to your source code repositories and avoid push conflicts.

This implementation embeds hub and executes the sync command, see: https://hub.github.com/hub-sync.1.html

• If the local branch is outdated, fast-forward it;
• If the local branch contains unpushed work, warn about it;
• If the branch seems merged and its upstream branch was deleted, delete it.

Manual Git Pull

This extension exposes the "git pull" command on the context menu of the solution node in Solution Explorer. The same command is also available using the keyboard short cut Ctrl+K, Ctrl+Z.

Automatic Git Pull

The extension can also invoke "git pull" automatially when a solution opens. The extension will load on a background thread when the first solution is being opened. It does so with little to no impact to solution load performance.

This can be enabled in the Tools -> Options dialog as illustrated below.

When this setting is set to false, the extension is not being loaded at all. Only when the command is manually invoked will the extension load.

Visual confirmation

The Output Window will show the information about the git pull command.

gitpull's Issues

AutoFetch maybe?

Just an idea, since I think you are trying to solve similar problem:

In Visual Studio 2017's status bar, there's a badge with number of unpushed commits.
Visual Studio Code extends it with number of "unpulled" commits and a sync button:

In order to show number of unpulled commits, it simply fetches commits from upstream branch every minute or so. This does not cause any conflicts and it is super useful.

What do you think?

Add support for versions of Visual studio before 2019

The current VSIX only supports Visual Studio 2019:
https://github.com/madskristensen/GitPull/blob/master/src/source.extension.vsixmanifest#L13

Could we make it work for earlier versions as well? 😄

Pull on Solution Open = True, but doesn't pull on open

I'm using this extension with VS 2022 and I have Pull on Solution Open set to True, but git does not do a pull on solution open.

However, when I go into Options > Source Control > Git Pull (with Pull on Solution Open = True) and then click OK, a git pull occurs.
