Features-fetch (ff) is a simple drush command extension that simplifies deploying (rebuilt) Drupal Feature modules to a specific Drupal project.
Features are a collection of Drupal entities (like content types, views, contexts and imagecache presets) that taken together satisfy a certain use case. Developing a feature typically involves selecting the appropriate entities and downloading the custom feature module that the Features module generates.
You can modify a feature's entities (like add a display to a view) and update the feature module itself using the drush features-update command, but adding new components requires rebuilding and downloading the updated feature module.
