• What is the difference between git pull and git fetch

If you do git fetch it will download or pulls or fetch the new changes happened in remote and it will stores those changes in temporary location in local but it will not add those changes in local branches or files.

If you want to reflect those changes in your branch you need to run one more command that is git merge.

Git merge command will merge those new changes to local branch which came from remote.

And no need to run those commands you can use only one command for git fetch and git merge i.e git pull.

Git pull will do both git fetch followed by git merge.

Git pull= git fetch + git merge

• Have you worked on feature branches

This explanation is for devops engineers.

Yes I worked on feature branches whenever I got a request to create like httpd ansible role or chef cookbook or puppet manifests  I will create a feature branch. And I will work in that feature branch. After implementing or writing the role I will test that role on testing servers. after completion of the testing of that role I will create a pull request to some other main branch like master.

So the admin of the master branch will merge that feature branch into master branch.
