Sure, between "leaving it untouched, keeping the stale value" and
"updating it to match what was pushed", everybody would know you
mean the latter when you say "correctly update".  There is no third
option "updating it to match a random commit that is related to but
is not exactly the same as what was pushed" to be correct.

What I felt unclear was _why_ both of these two (remote and testgit)
have to get updated.  In other words, "correctly update it" because
"without doing so, these bad things X, Y and Z will happen".
