[R-pkg-devel] GitHub error
Hi, Andrew: Thanks. I think that was exactly what I needed: I was in particular unsure about "git push --force". Spencer Graves

Not really the place for this type of thing, but here's what I'd do: add .DS_Store to your .gitignore file, this should ignore both .DS_Store and inst/.DS_Store delete both .DS_Store files from your repository then try to pull again. You can use --force in git push, that should force them to combine, ignoring the overwrite warning On Wed, Apr 20, 2022 at 9:17 PM Spencer Graves <spencer.graves at effectivedefense.org> wrote:
Hello, All:
When I do "git pull", I get "error: Your local changes to the
following files would be overwritten by merge: .DS_Store .gitignore
inst/.DS_Store".
I've done "git rm --cached .DS_Store", etc., which some web page told
me would remove ".DS_Store" from GitHub but not from my local copy.
Then when I try, "git push", I get "! [rejected] // master -> master
(non-fast-forward) // error: failed to push some refs to
'github.com:JamesRamsay5/fda.git'".
What do you suggest? Manually delete those files from the GitHub
repository?
Thanks,
Spencer Graves
p.s. This is with "https://github.com/JamesRamsay5/fda".
