DESCRIPTION

16       Sync  destination  repository  from source repository. Syncing uses the
17       main branch of the source repository to update the matching  branch  on
18       the  destination  repository  so  they are equal. A fast forward update
19       will be used except when the --force flag is specified,  then  the  two
20       branches will by synced using a hard reset.
21
22
23       Without  an  argument, the local repository is selected as the destina‐
24       tion repository.
25
26
27       The source repository is the parent of the  destination  repository  by
28       default.  This can be overridden with the --source flag.
