I used git pull [email protected]:myaccount/random.git
for updating my local git directory.
I found following result on shell

I tried to understand following output and understood upto a limit. I got what is delelte mode or create mode. But what is number after |
sign and what does +
and -
are representing. and what is Fast Forward
in start of the line. I found more things like if a file is deleted, its output after |
is consist of only number and -
s. So what does it actually mean?
Fast forward is the hashed commit pointer moving to the most current commit it can without merging required. The pluses and minuses are the changes to lines in the files, the insertions/deleted message is the sum of the changes. The pluses and minuses are just approximations.
