Git refusing to merge unrelated histories on rebase

Question

During git rebase origin/development the following error message is shown from Git:

fatal: refusing to merge unrelated histories
Error redoing m         


        

Answer 1

Firstly pull the remote changes to your local using the following command:

git pull origin branchname --allow-unrelated-histories

** branchname is master in my case.

When the pull command done, conflict occurs. You should solve the conflicts. I use Android Studio to solve conflicts.

When conflicts solved, merge is done!

Now you can safely push.
