Pull Button for git disabled in VisualStudio

Question

I'm using VisualStudio 2013 Update 4 and have git for Windows installed. I have local git repository and my project is linked to. I can push unsynced commits to remote repository in the IDE, but button for pull and fetch are disabled.

In git bash i can pull (or fetch) and then back in VS i get an unsynced commitment for "merge" and can push it (Looks strange to me).

Can i integrate pull/fetch from remote repository without TFS?

Answer 1

If I understood your question? You want to perform git pull/fetch outside of VS editor.

if your git path is set in your environment path variable, then post navigating to your local .git repository directory via command prompt/powershell you should be able to run "git pull" and it should work. The git path is defaulted to "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Git\cmd"
