See the > 'Note about fast-forwards' section of 'git push --help' for details. This is a non-fast forwarding push; i.e., it has the same end patch as the destination, which is the "non-fast forward" part. I hit this problem several times at work. It's blocked since there's no way for git to go through the list of all commits on both your repo and the remote repo to make sure that your push isn't eliminating some historical patch in the remote. That's why it's blocked by default. -- Darryl L. Pierce, Sr. Software Engineer @ Red Hat, Inc. Delivering value year after year.
