Just a note about pull and fetch. In git pull is "fetch + merge into
default merge branch" and sometimes you want to do a fetch then use some
history review tool (like gitk --all) before the real merge. So it does
make sense to have "update" do a pull but have a separate "fetch" command.

 If we are going to teach "creation science" as an alternative to
  evolution, then we should also teach the stork theory as an
  alternative to biological reproduction.                -- Judith Hayes
