## NAME

`git-sync` - Sync local branch with remote branch

## SYNOPSIS

`git sync` [--soft] [--force] [ <remote> <branch> ]

## DESCRIPTION

Sync local branch with <remote>/<branch>.

When <remote> and <branch> are not specified on the command line, upstream of local branch will be used by default.

Tracked changes will be reset, and untracked files and directories will be removed unless you add -s(--soft).

## OPTIONS

--soft or -s

Add this flag if you want to preserve untracked files and directories.

--force or -f

Add this flag to disable interaction.

## EXAMPLES

Sync local branch with its upstream

    $ git sync

Sync local branch with origin/master

    $ git sync origin master

Sync without cleaning untracked files:

    $ git sync -s origin master

Sync without interaction:

    $ git sync -f
