[Bioc-devel] hook declined or non-fast-forward problem

[Turaga, Nitesh]

Hi Yuande,

This is being blocked because you have completely unrelated histories from what you have on your Github to the Bioc-git repo. We deliberately don’t allow force pushing. 

Are you sure you want to merge the unrelated histories? This is important to consider, particularly because we’ve had this problem of packages having duplicate commits.Please make sure your Github Repo does not have any duplicate commits. (“git log --oneline”)

If you think the Github repo is at a state where it needs to synced to the Bioc-git repo, let me know and I’ll take a look at it and sync it for you.

Send me the link to your Github repo or just send me the output to “git remove -v”.

Best,

Nitesh
