Hi Bjorn,

The error "-11 reference was not fast-forwardable" usually means that there are changes on the remote repository (AlgoForge/MQL5 Storage) that you don't have locally yet. To fix this, follow these steps:

  1. Pull first: Right-click on your project in the Navigator and select Git > Pull (or Update from Storage) to bring the latest changes into your local IDE.

  2. Resolve Conflicts: If there are any code conflicts between your local version and the server version, MetaEditor will prompt you to resolve them.

  3. Push again: Once your local environment is up-to-date, try to Push your changes again.

Tip: It is a good practice to always "Pull" before you start working on your code to keep everything synchronized.

Hi Mostafa,


I tried it, I get this error now..

The remote repository still contains all the files I coded. My local repository still doesn't.

Do you have any more tips?

 

Hi,


I made a complete new attempt. I deinstalled Metatrader 5 and installed it clean again.

I filled in my mql5 account on the options menu both on metatrader 5 & in IDE.

I checked the https:-link address to with algoforge, it's the same.


And... still I am getting an error message and the Pull option is not available in het Git menu.

I don't succeed in getting my code to my computer.


Online in AlgoForge is my complete still complete, in IDE still not.


Can anybody help me?

Or have any tips on what more to try?


Kind regards,

Björn

If you can run git commands in the terminal, that's good. Run 'git status' in the MQL5 directory (which opens when you click "open data folder").

I worded it a bit incorrectly, sorry. "Open data folder" opens the parent directory, not the MQL5 directory. Please run git status for the MQL5 directory.

There is a hidden folder .git in the MQL5 directory - delete it (enable display of hidden folders to see it).


After deleting the .git folder, launch MetaEditor and try clicking "git clone".
