Why a Morning Git Pull Is a Team Ritual

Sync before you speak — know the trunk before you branch.

[ essay ]

Pull main before standup. Not superstition — shared reality. Conflicts discovered early are cheaper than conflicts discovered at merge time.

Ritual properties: short, repeatable, same time daily. Works remote because it is behavioral, not physical.

Extend: skim changelog or release notes if your team writes them — context beats surprise.
