If your patch comes from a temporary branch, just checkout the master branch (~$ git checkout master) and pull normally with ~$ git pull. (This is the advantage of working in branches: you'll always be able to pull from the master branch.) If your patch comes from the master branch, two cases: 1. you *didn't commit* your changes on your local repo. Then you need to reset to HEAD and pull: ~$ git reset --hard HEAD ~$ git pull 2. you *did commit* your changes on your local repo. Then you need to reset to a specific commit (i.e. the one from last pull) and pull: ~$ git reset --hard <commit> ~$ git pull You can get <commit> with ~$ git log. Playing with gitk might also help. http://book.git-scm.com/4_undoing_in_git_-_reset,_checkout_and_revert.html will give more details.
