Git commit, git push to GitHub, nothing more to commit, but GitHub is not updated

I have committed all changes and pushed to GitHub right after that, but the source viewer on GitHub is only showing the source from three hours ago.

$ git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit, working directory clean

Update

git push origin

This updated the the GitHub repository, for some reason. So that fixed my problem.

I don't really see why this would help, since I assumed that it pushed to origin by default when you gave the command

git push

Solution

  • You can always use

    git push origin master --force

    to force origin to be an exact copy of your local machine.

    USE WITH CAUTION!
