how can I do a git pull in the gitg / gitx visual tool?

Question

I can do a push using gitg and push my code to the remote master branch but I can\'t see any option to do a git pull.

I am on Ubuntu 10 and 11

In gitg 0.2.4, you cannot pull directly, so you also fetch and merge:

• fetch by going in the repository properties, select the remote repo and cli
• display all branches of the remote, and merge the branch you want (origin/master most of the time) by right-clicking on the tip of the branch
