From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The term "ancestor" is a bit more intuitive (and more consistent with
the documentation) than the term "strict subset".
Also, remove superfluous "ref", capitalize, and add some carriage
returns, changing:
error: remote 'refs/heads/master' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/master'. maybe you are not up-to-date and need to pull first?
error: failed to push to 'ssh://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/exports/git.git'
to:
error: remote 'refs/heads/master' is not an ancestor of
local 'refs/heads/master'.
Maybe you are not up-to-date and need to pull first?
error: failed to push to 'ssh://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/exports/git.git'
