values will be ``True`` only if new commits were fetched, and ``False``
if there were errors or no new commits were fetched.
Update one or all configured git_pillar remotes.
Fetch one or all configured git_pillar remotes.
.. note::
This will *not* fast-forward the git_pillar cachedir on the master. All
it does is perform a ``git fetch``. If this runner is executed with
``-l debug``, you may see a log message that says that the repo is
up-to-date. Keep in mind that Salt automatically fetches git_pillar
repos roughly every 60 seconds (or whatever
:conf_master:`loop_interval` is set to). So, it is possible that the
repo was fetched automatically in the time between when changes were
pushed to the repo, and when this runner was executed. When in doubt,
simply refresh pillar data using :py:func:`saltutil.refresh_pillar
<salt.modules.saltutil.refresh_pillar>` and then use
:py:func:`pillar.item <salt.modules.pillar.item>` to check if the
pillar data has changed as expected.
