I cloned git://github.com/symfony/symfony.git to C:/git/test-root and then cloned C:/git/test-root twice to C:/git/test-clone and C:/git/test-clone2. I modify the README file in C:/git/test-clone, stage it, commit it and then try to push it to C:/git/test-root and get this message: To prevent you from losing history, non-fast-forward updates were rejected Merge the remote changes before pushing again. See the 'non-fast forward' section of 'git push --help' for details. Pushing to C:/git/test-root To C:/git/test-root ! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast forward) error: failed to push some refs to 'C:/git/test-root' What does that even mean? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
