 Pullback of a covariant tensor

The pullback of a covariant tensor composes each of its vector arguments with the differential of a smooth map. It takes a type $(0,s)$ tensor on the target to one on the source. Antisymmetry is not required; the pullback of a differential form is the alternating special case. If the target vectors are projected onto the image tangent space first, evaluating the pullback is unchanged.
