    Why do you think it isn’t appropriate?

    git pull will update your branch to the same state of the remote repository, so if the file you have is at a newer version on the remote, it will be replaced.

    EDIT

    If after the pull, merges are done with your local changes, you can reset to the state of remote repository with the following:

    git reset origin/head -- <file-path>
