so I keep getting these issues when I go to commit a repo to git??

distj@DESKTOP-2RJ0VPK MINGW64 ~/Desktop/DEsktop/resources/treehouse/16.Javascript/projects/jsForm (master) $ git push -u origin master To https://github.com/DJSandsCreation/DJS-JSformValidation.git ! [rejected] master -> master (fetch first) error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/DJSandsCreation/DJS-JSformValidation.git' 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.

it's saying you need to do a git pull before pushing to integrate remote changes into your local changes. git pull will merge remote code into yours; this may cause a merge conflict, if local and remote have changes to same files/lines of code.
