I am attempting to update my local copy of boost develop, which I can usually do with the commands:
git checkout develop git pull --recurse-submodules git submodule update --init
and then
git submodule foreach git checkout develop git submodule foreach git pull
I have not done this for some time.
When I did it today I get a lot of messages from boost align with unmerged files and it will not update. I have not worked on these files myself.
What do I need to do to get boost align restored to a good state?
I've seen this too. I solved this by doing: git reset --hard origin/develop in libs/align. Note this will reset your local history to correspond to the remote branch. I'd really prefer we have a policy to not rewrite git history so that problems like this don't come up.
