So, `git fetch origin` fetches any new work that has been pushed to that server since you cloned (or last fetched from) it. It's important to note that the `git fetch` command only downloads the data to your local repository -- it doesn't automatically merge it with any of your work or modify what you're currently working on. You have to merge it manually into your work when you're ready.
