Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

Linux check the file online, and check for change compared to the local file on your computer, if there is a change, then it GET the file, as you can see in the first command!
