Mark's work can be fetched by John with the following command:
# command issued in johns-repo
$ git fetch
This command will transform the repositories shown in
Figure 10-26
into the form
shown in
Figure 10-27
.

John's repo after his $ git fetch command
When John's repository is in the state shown in
Figure 10-27
, then the
$ git
status -sb
command prints:
## master...origin/master [behind 2]
Therefore, John's
master
branch misses two revisions included in his
origin/
master
branch. John can fast-forward his branch with the following command:
# command issued in johns-repo
$ git rebase
The repository shown in
Figure 10-27
is transformed with John's
$ git rebase
command into the state shown in
Figure 10-28
. The history of all repositories is linear.
