The result shows that “index.html” is absent in the desired directory. But I copied it and verified it after copying.
Please look into the SS for a better understanding.
You need to commit and push changes from the branch, then merge the branch into master and push the changes.

Hi Santosh,
After trying twice, I have followed your advice but face with the same error
.

I just tried this one, and it works for me as well. This person’s technique will work. I don’t think you needed to change the ownership of the cloned repo (I did not, I don’t think Santosh did either). This might be confusing the grader.

without permission change of repo under the /usr/src/kodeklouldrepos/* , I cann’t even checkout
.
so definitely this (Solution) is not working for me ,
So I have tried sudo for every command, able to successfully pushed the datacenter and master branch to /opt/cluster.git
but that also failed

wasted so much time on this; it seems it won’t be worth it if I don’t finish this task off.
In a concudrum 
Any feedback is apprecitated. 
Even I got error in this 3 times with reason - new git branch ‘datacenter’ is not created under ‘/usr/src/kodekloudrepos/beta/’ repo on Storage server same error 3 times even after creating datacenter also
Did you use sudo and do the task as root? If you do: it works.
The trick here is to do the task as root, since both the upstream and the downstream are owned by root:
[natasha@ststor01 ~]$ sudo -i
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
[sudo] password for natasha:

Don’t change the ownership of either repo – the task doesn’t ask you to do that, and you absolutely do not need to do that. I confirm that this works with the grader.
I did as natasha and changed the owner ship also to natasha from root, will try again with just root user
Yes, no need to change the ownership of the repo. I tried too many times but later worked on different approach like without changing the ownership to natasha, we can execute git commands with sudo prefix which might work most of the time.
