Any suggestions please?

What lab is this for? Full name of the lab + “Day of” will help.

Level 2 Git. Thank you!

Please: the name of the lab as well.

All that I know is, it’s part of engineer.kodekloud. I picked 100 days of Devops and 100 days of Cloud (AWS). It allowed me to pick two tasks, I picked Level 1 Git (I completed) and Level 2. Git. I am on the second one. Does that answer?

Under that it’s Git Merge Remotes.

That is the information I needed. Thanks.

Actually, there is NO LAB BY THAT NAME. There is

Git Manage Remotes
and
Git Merge Branches.

I find labs by their exact names. I’ll check the two labs, but please, be precise.

Sorry about that.

4 Git Manage Remotes

That’s the one.

I did the following, which worked:

[root@ststor01 blog]# git status

Thanks. But do you see my command and output? git branch --remote. It does show the stated remote branch which the error is complaining of.

This indicates you didn’t do the necessary – you’ve created a branch “dev_news” on the “origin” remote. The task asks you to create a new remote of dev_news that points to a different upstream repo. If you do the task correctly, you’d have gotten output that looked more like “dev_news/master”, since you’re pushing the modified master branch to the remote you needed to create with git remote add dev_news UPSTREAM.

Ok, thanks. So it looks like the end result didn’t matter but some specific sequence was required.

Interestingly, the error is about the specific remote “dev_news” not found. In my git branch --remote I show that the remote did exist. And yes, this was pushed after the new commit was added.

Thanks Rob. I realized I was looking at remote branches vs remote repositories.
