Hello All,
I am having a go at using git and need a bit of help.

I have git installed on my laptop and on my pc. I created some files on the pc then used git close via ssh to put them on my laptop - all OK so far!

I then modified the files, added them, commited the changes and then used git push to put them on the PC - still no problems.

Both systems show the commits but the PC does not have the latest version of the files. Git status on the PC shows the file as changed but commiting give an error when pushing from the laptop.

I assume that I need to run a command on the PC to get both systems the same. Is it a reset or something else?

Regards,
Chris
