Git pull not working?

Question

git

Hello.
I created a remote and local repository.
Created a README.md file in the local repository and pushed it to the remote one.
I deleted a file in the local repository and I want to return it from the remote one again.
Writing:

PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git status
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
        deleted:    README.md

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git pull
Already up to date.
PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git status
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
        deleted:    README.md

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

Also tried doing this:

PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git fetch origin
PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git merge origin/master
Already up to date.
PS D:\VS\UnknownEngine> git status
On branch master
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

Changes not staged for commit:
  (use "git add/rm <file>..." to update what will be committed)
  (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
        deleted:    README.md

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

As a result, nothing changes.
Why is that?

Answer 1

Because pull pulls new commits from the remote repository. There are no new commits there.

I deleted a file in the local repository and I want to ... return it.

use " git restore ..." to discard changes in working directory
