Since pull is a command in git and is different with fetch, it may confuses the newbie while indroducing the pull command later??? or not?

It's important to note that the `git fetch` command pulls the data to your local repository [...]

[...] you can use the `git pull` command to automatically fetch and then merge a remote branch into your current branch.(((git commands, pull)))

Would it better to use download or just fetch for pulls?
