Using git stash is the most straightforward and secure method for accomplishing this. This command will restore a repository to the state of its most recent commit and save any modifications made to its working directory since then. To retrieve remote changes, you can then use the git pull command. In order to reapply the uncommitted changes on top of the new commits, run git stash pop.
