Now am trying to go back to my master branch and get: error: The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by checkout: lib/derbyclient.jar Please move or remove them before you can switch branches. Aborting I did not put that file there, how do I get back to my master branch? I do not want to muck up the branch that I am now one. Obviously someone put derbyclient.jar there, not sure, but it is supposed to be there so do not want to remove. any ideas?
