A data engineer is running code in a Databricks Repo that is cloned from a central Git repository. A colleague of the data engineer informs them that changes have been made and synced to the central Git repository.

D
Push
Explanation:
Explanation
The correct answer is B. Pull.
Why Pull is the correct operation:
-
Pull fetches and merges changes: The
git pullcommand performs two operations:git fetch: Downloads changes from the remote repositorygit merge: Merges those changes into your local branch
-
Scenario context: The data engineer already has a cloned repository (local copy), and needs to get the latest changes that their colleague has pushed to the central Git repository.
-
Other options explained:
- A. Clone: This creates a new local copy of a repository from a remote source. The engineer already has a cloned repo, so this would create a duplicate.
- C. Merge: This combines changes from different branches but doesn't fetch from remote. It's part of what
pulldoes, but alone it doesn't get the remote changes. - D. Push: This sends local changes to the remote repository. The engineer needs to get changes FROM the remote, not send TO the remote.
Databricks Repo context:
In Databricks Repos, when you need to sync your local repo with the central Git repository to get the latest changes from colleagues, you use the Pull operation. This updates your local repo with all the changes that have been committed and pushed to the remote repository by other team members.
