Description Aigars Mahinovs 2009-12-02 12:10:12 UTC 
The one big feature still missing from gitg is pulling from a remote repository to the local one. A simple pull interface in a similar way to the push interface would be very useful.
Comment 1 jessevdk@gmail.com 2009-12-02 13:00:43 UTC 
Although direct pulling is not supported, you can fetch and then merge or rebase. Fetching is done in the repository properties window by fetching from some remote. After this, you can use DND to rebase or merge your local branch on top of the remote you just fetched.

It's nice to know that it's possible to fetch/merge/rebase as Jesse described, but I agree with Aigars that it would be nice to have a more direct way to accomplish a git pull.
Comment 3 Sindhu S 2013-06-12 04:30:36 UTC 
Though this bug report was possibly filed for C-version of gitg, pulling from a remote and Rebase are currently not implemented.

Marking this bug as NEW.
