Please enter a commit message
Solution
When trying to push a commit into Github via terminal we come across this problem: “Please enter a commit message to explain why this merge is necessary, especially if it merges an updated upstream into a topic branch | Error Message”.
This happens when a commit is made to the branch you are working with and you try to push a commit (git push) before pulling the changes (git pull).
How to solve this:
1- Press “i” on your keyboard.
2- Write your merge message
3- Press “esc” button
4- Type “:wq”
5- Press Enter
Finally, Push Changes “git push”
