GitHub users may have encountered the following message when trying to clone, fork, pull, or push to a repository: GitHub users may have encountered the following message when trying to clone, fork, pull, or push to a repository: The remote end may have rejected your request because it appears that the remote repository has been updated recently. You may be seeing this error because the remote repository has changed since the last time you synchronized with it. This usually means that someone else has pushed some code to the remote repository. You can resolve this issue by doing the following: Go to the settings of the repository and click Synchronize Now. This will update the remote repository with your latest changes. The issue with the above message is caused by the fact that the remote repository was updated by a third party and not by the original owner of the repository. As a result, the remote repository would appear as updated on GitHub, which would cause all attempts to clone, fork, pull, or push to fail. To solve this, you will have to change the remote server address to point to the original server and not the clone URL. To do that, go to the settings of the repository, click on the GitHub icon on the top right corner and select Settings. In the Settings page, go to the Remote tab.
