I am attempting to push when I experience a conflict (ruby-1.9.2-p180)
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git push origin master
To git@gitorious.org:diaspora_cts/diaspora_cts.git
! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs to ‘git@gitorious.org:diaspora_cts/diaspora_cts.git’
To prevent you from losing history, non-fast-forward updates were rejected
Merge the remote changes (e.g. ‘git pull’) before pushing again. See the
‘Note about fast-forwards’ section of ‘git push –help’ for details.
First, see if the conflict can be automatically resolved:
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git pull
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
db/schema.rb
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.
Aborting
Git status shows that your state is conflicted:
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git status
# On branch master
# Your branch and ‘origin/master’ have diverged,
# and have 2 and 1 different commit(s) each, respectively.
#
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
IMPORTANT – If you can resolve the conflict do so (normal procedure), this procedure presumes you wish to write the conflicting updates to a branch.
Reset your tree to just your unmerged updates:
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git reset –hard HEAD
HEAD is now at 340a54e changes amde
Create a branch, use a name which suggests a conflict:
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git branch conflict_stuff
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git branch
conflict_stuff
* master
Reset your tree to the prior revision:
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git reset –hard HEAD
HEAD is now at 340a54e changes amde
Pull the other persons changes:(Do not do git pull but always git fetch + git merge)
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git fetch
cts_work/diaspora_cts git:(master)> git merge origin/master
Merge made by recursive.
