Python - Showing console output

Question

Right now I have a command which allows you to apply changes to the local files on my hosting server. Is there a way to make the bot send await ctx.send(...) the output of the git reset command to Discord? Normally the output looks like this:

HEAD is now at f8dd7fe Slash Commands/Pull Feature/JSON Changes!

This is my current command:

@client.command()
@commands.has_role('Bot Manager')
async def gitpull(ctx):
 typebot = config['BotType']
 if typebot == "BETA":
 os.system("git fetch --all")
 os.system("git reset --hard origin/TestingInstance")
 await ctx.send("I have attempted to *pull* the most recent changes in **TestingInstance**")
 elif typebot == "STABLE":
 os.system("git fetch --all")
 os.system("git reset --hard origin/master")
 await ctx.send("I have attempted to *pull* the most recent changes in **Master**")

Use the subprocess module instead of os.system. That will allow you to capture the subprocess's output.

Something like:

@client.command()
@commands.has_role('Bot Manager')
async def gitpull(ctx):
 typebot = config['BotType']
 output = ''
 if typebot == "BETA":
 p = subprocess.run("git fetch --all", shell=True, text=True, capture_output=True, check=True)
 output += p.stdout
 p = subprocess.run("git reset --hard origin/TestingInstance", shell=True, text=True, capture_output=True, check=True)
 output += p.stdout
 await ctx.send(f"I have attempted to *pull* the most recent changes in **TestingInstance**\n{output}")
 elif typebot == "STABLE":
 p = subprocess.run("git fetch --all", shell=True, text=True, capture_output=True, check=True)
 output += p.stdout
 p = subprocess.run("git reset --hard origin/master", shell=True, text=True, capture_output=True, check=True)
 output += p.stdout
 await ctx.send(f"I have attempted to *pull* the most recent changes in **Master**\n{output}")
