You mean ``git pull''? I get

$ git refresh
git: 'refresh' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Depending on how you run (uncompiled from the git repo? compiled and
installed in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp? etc, etc.), you need to
do

        make autoloads

at the very least. If you are doing the "right" thing, compiling and
installing in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/org or thereabouts, you need to 
do

        make install

(probably as root).

If you are on Windows, this won't work.
