Thanks for your assistance. How do I "Open the repository in the Codespace." If I go to the codespace, which is where all of my files and code are, I don't see a repository to open. How do I do that?? In fact I thought the codespace was a repository. How do I find the repository's Git panel? Where is that located? I can't seem to find that. Right now, I'm at what I believe to be the dashboard and there is a window with all of the directories I've created. This list of directories doe not equal the directories that are in my codespace (which I'm told is the "remote repository"). I don't see anything that looks like a "Git panel." What is that and where is that located? I see 2 tabs above the directories window- one tab says 'main' and the tab next to it says '1 branch'. When I click on the tab that says 'main', I get a drop down with a field asking me to enter the name of a branch to find it or create a new branch. So now what? I don't have any branches that i know of. Your instructions say to "pull" the latest changes from the remote repository. So I guess that's the codespace, right? How do I pull changes from that codespace? Thanks again for your help. Still dead in the water... |

Hi everyone, I've encountered the same "remote repository contains conflicting changes" message in VS Code, especially after making my GitHub account email private. Here's what worked for me: If your GitHub email is private: Go to your GitHub account settings. I hope this helps! |

Question
Body
I continue to get a pop-up message in my codespace: "remote repository contains conflicting changes". There is a button to press: "Force Push" but this button doesn't seem to do anything and the messages continue. I have read in a GitHub discussion group that the following terminal commands might work:
git pull origin main
git add .
git commit -m “your message here”
git push origin main
But since the codespace is owned by CS50, I can't enter these commands in the terminal. Can anyone help? Thanks very much...
