Re: [orion-dev] Can't fast-forward and can't merge

Hi John,

You've got at least three options:
1. Force push (available on Git Log) your changes if you're 100% you want
to overwrite what's on github. This is kind of last resort solution, and I
don't recommend it.

I copied the text out of the file buffers and committed them via emacs locally.
 
2. After fetching changes from a remote, try to merge and in case of any
conflicts follow the link to Git Status to solve them. When done (add +
commit) you should be able to push your changes (including the new commit).

I did fetch and merge, but nothing happens. No conflicts, no messages of any kind. Just a reload.

 
3. You can also abandon your local changes by resetting your local branch
to the remote counterpart.

I guess I did this by trial and error. Remember that your git UI does not surface git directly: what UI operations did you have in mind here?
 

If none of these work for you and you have a set of reproducible steps
please open a bug. Feel free to CC me. We can continue the discussion
there.

I do not know what causes this failure yet.

I seem to have gotten stuck, but I don't know if this is a bug or missing
features.

I can't succeed at git push to github because REJECTED_NONFASTFORWARD. I
can't merge back from github, the UI just seem to refresh with no error or
change (well this much is surely a bug).

Any hints? I'll copy and paste as work around.
