git pull a specific tag only

Solution 1

the solution that I find is:

  1. $ git fetch -unf origin 1.0.12:refs/tags/1.0.12
  2. $ git checkout 1.0.12

if remote changes wants to merge with current will make a: $ git merger 1.0.12

please tell me if my way is right

Solution 2

You need to use git checkout to checkout the tag you want. This will make the working directory the same as it was when you created the tag.

    I looking for command to make my life easiest.

    The issue: have a project with sources. along of time i pushed more versions: v1.0.1 until v1.0.14 (latest) the version v1.0.12 is an patch and fixes special for myserver, but the myserver actually have installed v1.0.10 (I should update from v1.0.10 to v1.0.12)

    the question: how to make an command to update the specific server to the looking version v1.0.12

    i know command git pull but not understand how to do correct way also i want some options to prevent merge conflicts

    the start point is command that i made:

    $ git pull --rebase origin refs/tags/1.0.13:refs/tags/1.0.13
    From http://192.168.0.12/gitlab/AF-NG/frontend-dist
    * [new tag]         1.0.13     -> 1.0.13
    * [new tag]         1.0.11     -> 1.0.11
    * [new tag]         1.0.12     -> 1.0.12
    * [new tag]         1.0.14     -> 1.0.14
    First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it...
    Applying: 2.0.0
    Using index info to reconstruct a base tree...
    ------
    Falling back to patching base and 3-way merge...
    Auto-merging styles/css/production.min.css
    CONFLICT (add/add): Merge conflict in file.css
    When you have resolved this problem, run "git rebase --continue".
    If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git rebase --skip" instead.
    To check out the original branch and stop rebasing, run "git rebase --abort"
