What's happened is that user B changed the branch the user A was working on (strictly speaking, the B-user changed the reference A-user used as HEAD at the moment). Just have the B-user push his/hers changes on something else, not the master of the parent repository. For instance, B-user can add a "push"-line to his origin remote which redirects its pushes somewhere else: git config remote.origin.push 'refs/heads/*:refs/heads/B-user/*' Or just use a dedicated shared repo where no one works in. See also Documentation/config.txt, and the man page of git-push. - 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
