This worked for me perfectly:

1.git stash to discard your local modifications
2.git checkout master to switch to the main branch (Assuming you want to use master)
3.git pull to pull last commit from master branch
4.git status in order to check everything looks great

On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.

This worked for me perfectly:

1.git stash to save your local modifications

If you want to discard changes
git clean -df
git checkout -- .
git clean removes all untracked files (warning: while it won't delete ignored files mentioned directly in .gitignore, it may delete ignored files residing in folders) and git checkout clears all unstaged changes.
