Run "git status", it will point you to the modifications you did in a
slightly more user-friendly format.

Git doesn't allow a merge if you have uncommited changes, either your
changes are irrelevant and you want to "git reset --hard", or they
are, and you want to commit (and perhaps use "rebase"), or stash them.
