# Fetch

> Download from the team

Downloads the latest work from your team's shared project.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch [url] [options]
```

## Arguments

| Argument | What it is                                   | Required?           |
| -------- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
| `url`    | The project address (web URL or folder path) | Only the first time |

## Options

| Option      | What it does                                            |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--force`   | Replace all your local work with the team's version     |
| `--preview` | Show what would be downloaded without actually doing it |

## First time using fetch

The first time, you need to tell Anchor4Git where the project is:

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch https://github.com/team/project.git
```

After the first time, you can just run:

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch
```

Anchor4Git remembers the address from then on.

## Normal use (recommended)

Just run `ag fetch` to get the latest:

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch
```

**What happens:**

1. If you have unsaved changes, they are automatically saved first
2. The latest work from the team is downloaded
3. Any differences are merged into your files
4. You're ready to keep working

## Force mode (replace everything)

If you want to throw away your local changes and get exactly what the team has:

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch --force
```

**Warning:** This will delete any changes you haven't saved.

## Preview mode

To see what would happen without actually doing it:

```bash theme={null}
ag fetch --preview
```

This shows you:

* The project address
* Whether your workspace has unsaved changes
* What files would change
* Whether the team's project is empty

## What if there are conflicts?

Sometimes your changes and the team's changes affect the same parts of the same file. When this happens, you'll see a message like:

```text theme={null}
[WARN] Conflicts detected:
    • index.html
```

Don't panic! Open the listed files in your editor. You'll see markers like:

```text theme={null}
<<<<<<< HEAD
Your version of the code
=======
Their version of the code
>>>>>>>
```

Edit the file to keep what you want, remove the markers, then save the file and run:

```bash theme={null}
ag save
```

> See the [Workflows](/anchor4git/workflow) page for more on handling conflicts.

## Examples

```bash theme={null}
