Regular past tense with -di is used for regular past tense. The one with -miş (story past) is used to tell something happened in the past "with reference to other sources."
So if you saw someone when he came, you say "geldi".
When you went there he was already there or someone told you that he came, you say "gelmiş"
we Use Regular past tense with "-di" most of the time. From the turkish grammar lessons of turkishclass you can find more details :Regular past tense
Story past
