I have two repo, namely repo A and repo B. Repo A takes in repo B's function output (a variable) to run. Repo B is imported into Repo A as a package for it to run every time Repo A is called.

I have made changes to repo B and has successfully merged it in GitHub. However, when I try to make a test-run on repo A, the changes have not been registered/ refreshed.

Is there a way to force the local repo A to refresh, and take in new repo changes from repo B, so that I can make a test-run?

    You'll have to clarify what you mean by "running" a repo. Are you talking CI, a script you wrote, or what exactly? Without knowing that, or how you've integrated your two repos in the first place, there's no way for us to figure this one out. – joanis Jul 11 '22 at 03:39

    Please link to the repositories (or a reproduction if that's not possible) – Nick McCurdy Jul 11 '22 at 04:42

You could, if repoA has a repoB subfolder declared as a submodule tracking a branch.

Then your job would have to do a git submodule update --remote in order to force repoB to refresh itself (and then do a git add/git commit/git push, in order for repoA to record the new repoB state)
Your job could then proceed working in repoA, with a repoB up to date.
