What is .gitkeep

this is how you include a folder with a single file .gitkeep but ignore its other contens for personal usage for each team member

`git pull` vs. `git pull origin` vs. `git pull origin main`

You’re working on a branch called SD-499 which was checked out from main.
Now main branch on the remote repository is updated.
Now you do git pull or git pull origin, this will only fetch and merge all remote branches to their respective local branches which set set t to tracked.
SO, now you need to merge main branch into your current branch either by doing git merge main or you can do it by git pull origin main as both will do same thing. Why? Ans. Because git pull origin main will pull update local main branch first and second it will merge main branch to your currently checkout branch. BECAUSE git pull = git fetch + git merge branch.
