How to sync local repository sources from the github repository?

At times, the local sources repository could be obsolete as the gitgub repository changes after we imported. In this post, I will provide the command required to sync the local repository from the github repository.

babu@babu-VirtualBox:~/EKiD$ git pull origin master
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (5/5), done.
remote: Total 5 (delta 3), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (5/5), done.

TBD: How are conflicts between local and remote changes handled?

Hope this helps.
