Subject: I've tried to read the manuals, but "git pull" just won't work

Message-ID: <668c430c0808022158s56e22c56t3bbd61eef59d7b32@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Sorry, I don't know where else to turn.
I've modified my local copy of ChangeLog and my "git pull" says, "Oh, oh!
You'd overwrite your changes" and refuses to pull. I tried
"git reset HEAD ChangeLog", but it says all sorts of crazy things
that make no sense and I'm still stuck. I know I can fix this:
pull my edits into a patch, throw away my repository, clone a fresh
copy. There has to be a better way. The better way is just too
obtuse to figure out.....Help, please? Thank you.
