What is the difference between pull and clone in git?

Question

What is the difference between doing (after mkdir repo and cd repo):

git remote add origin git://github.com/cmcculloh/repo         


        

Answer 1

In laymen language we can say:

• Clone: Get a working copy of the remote repository.
• Pull: I am working on this, please get me the new changes that may be updated by others.
