rejected

Please how do i resolve such error ! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs
hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind
hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes (e.g.
hint: 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

That means the remote master branch contains commits that aren't in the local branch you're trying to push, and would get lost if the push went ahead.

What to do depends on whether you actually want to keep those commits:

• If you want to keep them, either merge the remote branch into your local one, or rebase your local branch on the remote one. Then push.
• If you actually want to discard those commits you can push with --force to tell Git it should push even if it might mean losing data. ⚠️

Comparing the branches with git diff and git log might help you decide. 😉
