Pull Main

Switch to the main branch and pull the latest changes from origin/main while pruning stale remote-tracking references.

Step 1: Inspect Current State

Check the current branch:

git branch --show-current

If already on main, note it for the final report.

Step 2: Switch to Main

Switch to the main branch:

git switch main

Step 3: Pull with Prune

Pull the latest changes from origin/main with --prune to remove stale remote-tracking branches:

git pull --prune

Step 4: Report Result

Summarize the operation:

• Whether a branch switch occurred
• Number of commits pulled (fast-forward or merge)
• Any stale remote-tracking branches that were pruned
