Sync local branch with remote branch

Examples (TL;DR)

Synopsis

git sync [--soft] [--force] [ <remote> <branch> ]

Description

Sync local branch with <remote>/<branch>.

When <remote> and <branch> are not specified on the command line, upstream of local branch will be used by default.

All changes and untracked files and directories will be removed unless you add -s(--soft).

Options

--soft or -s
Add this flag if you want to preserve untracked files.
--force or -f
Add this flag to disable interaction.

Examples

Sync local branch with its upstream

$ git sync

Sync local branch with origin/master

$ git sync origin master

Sync without cleaning untracked files:

$ git sync -s origin master

Sync without interaction:

$ git sync -f
