This is probably a basic question, but let’s say I just cloned a GitHub repo to my computer. and then someone else working on the project changes something on the Github repo. How could I update my local code to be the same as the GitHub code?

To update your local repository with remote repository you can use
git pull
else if you want to update a specific branch you can use
git pull origin <branch_name>
replace <branch_name> with your branch
The git pull command first runs git fetch which downloads content from the specified remote repository. Then a git merge is executed to merge the remote content refs and heads into a new local merge commit.
also @Jeff Bennett has answered for a similar type of question, for more information you can refer update(pull) a branch before a pull/merge request
