Hello, I am working against a git repository which is updated at non regular intervals; sometimes it takes a day and sometimes a week or two. I have a script in crontab which runs daily which tries "git pull" of this repository. I want write a bash script which echoes yhe result of this git pull to a log file in such a way that in case that any files were pulled, a short message saying "files were pulled at date ddmmyyyy" will be added to a log file. In case that there there were no changes, a message saying "Already up-to-date (ddmmyyyy) will be added to a log file. How can it be done ? can I test somehow the return value of git pull in a bash script for these two different cases?
