That is both here and remotely I've projectC being a branch
here and remotely.

I'd like to pull changes to projectC only, from the remote projectC to the local projectC, but my
current branch is A.

I blissfully do:

git pull projectC

You wanted to "git fetch", not "git pull" which is "fetch
followed by merge into the current branch".
