Subject: Wording "fetch" to change to "pull" or "merge" ti suggest the proper action to take when pull fails?
Date: Thu, 05 Oct 2023 16:31:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3d513e04f7153e676c7e0b4f6f1e1fa0@de-weerd.name> (raw)
Hello
I noticed that the working upon a rejected pull request is "fetch
first".
However, AFAIK fetching will not help with the pull.
So I suggest to change that wording.
Example:
```bash
$ git push
To ssh://git.exemple.com/user/repo.git
! [rejected] main -> main (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://git.exemple.com/user/repo.git'
```
Kind regards
Mario
