Well, but then there's something you should really think
about. Then you _have_ local changes that are not at the remote.
You need to handle them somehow. Maybe you forgot to push
earlier and now the remote advanced.

Btw, the 'new' git pull should already have reported a warning
that it failed to fast forward the local branch. git pull
should have suggested to explicitly merge the branch with
local changes.
