[Bioc-devel] Cannot push to BioC git repo

[Ulrich Bodenhofer]

Hi,

I am the maintainer of the 'msa' package which has been in Bioconductor for eight years now. The package is hosted on github and synchronized with the BioC git repo. Today I merged a pull request that had been contributed by a github user. I further updated the package's DESCRIPTION and inst/NEWS file and wanted to push the latest version to the BioC git repo. No matter what I did, I did not succeed. The error messages are attached below. I am not a very skilled git user. Does anybody have an idea what I could/should do? Any help is gratefully appreciated!

Thanks,
Ulrich
