Hi Sergiu, I am trying to use your suggested steps. Here is what I am experiencing:
[homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git checkout master Switched to branch 'master' Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 10 commits. [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git remote show github origin [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% man git-remote [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% pwd /Users/comerduncan/sympy [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git checkout master Already on 'master' Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 10 commits. [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git pull github master >From github.com:comer/sympy * branch master -> FETCH_HEAD Already up-to-date. [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git branch * master test1 [homelap-3:~/sympy] comerduncan% git rebase -i master test1 error: could not apply d5da8bd... fixed indention problems with matrices.py and content problems with test_matrices.py both having to do with addition of dual_matrix method hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths hint: with 'git add <paths>' and run 'git rebase --continue' Could not apply d5da8bd... fixed indention problems with matrices.py and content problems with test_matrices.py both having to do with addition of dual_matrix method I got an editor window which I saved and then exited from the editor (TextWrangler). I do not know the value of <paths> so can not do the git add <paths> step.
