Hey guys! I keep getting the error message listed below whenever I try to push using this command: $ git push origin new_feature. I couldn't find anything on StackOverflow or the message boards and I'm stumped. I'm running Git version 2.3.8, thanks in advance for any help!
To /Users/Josh/cool_project ! [rejected] new_feature -> new_feature (fetch first) error: failed to push some refs to '/Users/Josh/cool_project' hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again. hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.
