You don't use them the same way. There is a layer of tooling between your local system and the main line. All the hooks, tags, and the like are local to you. Once your commit has passed code review and automated testing, it gets integrated into the main line by the tooling. You never, ever run a merge to master by hand, nor do you have permission to.
