cannot push to github: everything up-to-date

Question

On github, I forked an old version of another project. I made some changes and am trying to push them onto my fork on github. I commited the changes locally, then tried git

Answer 1

Not sure why people are down voting the guy with the correct answer. For me adding my email and name did resolve the issue. Although the commands are not correct.

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
