Git Stash Merge Solution

### Solution 1: Use Git Stash
Stashing allows you to temporarily save your local changes without committing them. Here's how:

1. **Stash your changes**:

git stash

2. **Perform the merge**:

git pull origin <branch-name>

3. **Apply your stashed changes**:

git stash pop

> If there are conflicts after running `git stash pop`, resolve them as needed.

### Solution 2: Use Git Pull with Stash
You can directly pull with stashing any local changes:

git pull --stash origin <branch-name>

This command stashes your changes, performs the pull, and automatically applies the stashed changes back.

### Solution 3: Discard Local Changes (if you don't need them)
If you're okay with losing your local changes, use:

git reset --hard HEAD
git pull origin <branch-name>

Choose the method that best fits your needs.

### Solution 1: Remove the Unwanted Files
If you don't need `vite.config.js.save` and the changes in `yarn.lock`, you can delete them:

rm vite.config.js.save
git checkout yarn.lock

### Solution 2: Stash Only the Tracked Files
If `vite.config.js.save` is an untracked file and you only want to stash changes for tracked files:

git stash -u

– `-u` (or `–include-untracked`) includes untracked files in the stash.

### Solution 3: Discard Unwanted Changes
If you simply want to discard the changes for these specific files:

git checkout -- vite.config.js.save
git checkout -- yarn.lock

### Solution 4: Pull Without Committing or Adding
If you just want to pull the latest changes without committing anything, but also not adding the unwanted files:

1. Stash your current changes.

git stash

2. Pull the changes from the remote branch.

git pull origin <branch-name>

3. Apply your stashed changes.

git stash pop

This way, any changes you didn't want to commit will not interfere with your pull process.

Untracked files:
(use "git add …" to include in what will be committed)
vite.config.js.save
yarn.lock
put all above file in .gitignore

Here's how you can handle it:

### Step 1: Add Files to `.gitignore`

Open your `.gitignore` file and add the following lines:

# Ignore backup files
vite.config.js.save

# Ignore yarn.lock file
yarn.lock

# Ignore changes to vite.config.js (optional)
vite.config.js

### Step 2: Remove the Files from Git Tracking (If Already Tracked)

If `vite.config.js` and `yarn.lock` are already tracked by Git, you'll need to remove them from the index:

# Remove vite.config.js from tracking but keep the file
git rm --cached vite.config.js

# Remove yarn.lock from tracking but keep the file
git rm --cached yarn.lock

### Step 3: Commit the Changes to `.gitignore`

git add .gitignore
git commit -m "Update .gitignore to ignore vite.config.js, yarn.lock, and vite.config.js.save"

### Notes:
– If you add `vite.config.js` to `.gitignore`, any future changes to this file won't be tracked by Git.
– The `.gitignore` solution only works for **untracked files**. For tracked files like `vite.config.js`, you have to remove them from Git tracking using `git rm –cached`.

fatal: pathspec 'yarn.lock' did not match any files

indicates that `yarn.lock` is not currently being tracked by Git. In this case, you don't need to run `git rm –cached yarn.lock`.

### Updated Steps to Ignore Files

Given that `yarn.lock` and possibly `vite.config.js.save` are untracked, you can directly update your `.gitignore` file. Here’s how:

#### Step 1: Add Files to `.gitignore`

Edit your `.gitignore` file and add the following lines:

# Ignore backup and temporary files
vite.config.js.save

# Ignore yarn.lock file
yarn.lock

# Ignore changes to vite.config.js (if you want to ignore changes)
vite.config.js

#### Step 2: Remove Tracked Files (if necessary)

Since `yarn.lock` is untracked, you don’t need to run `git rm –cached yarn.lock`. However, if `vite.config.js` is tracked and you want to stop tracking it, run:

git rm --cached vite.config.js

#### Step 3: Commit Your `.gitignore` Changes

git add .gitignore
git commit -m "Update .gitignore to ignore vite.config.js, vite.config.js.save, and yarn.lock"

### Additional Notes:
– If `vite.config.js` is important for your project but you don’t want to track changes, consider keeping it tracked but using `.gitignore` only for backup files like `vite.config.js.save`.
– You can verify if a file is tracked by using:

git ls-files

This approach ensures that unwanted files are ignored in the future while preserving the integrity of your existing tracked files.

### Step 1: Add Files to `.gitignore`

Edit your `.gitignore` file and add the following lines:

# Ignore backup files
vite.config.js.save

# Ignore yarn.lock file
yarn.lock

### Step 2: Remove the Untracked Files

You can use `git clean` to remove untracked files. **Be cautious**, as this will delete the files from your working directory.

git clean -f vite.config.js.save yarn.lock

If you want to remove **all** untracked files (use with caution):

git clean -f

### Step 3: Prevent Them from Being Added Again

Now that these files are listed in `.gitignore`, Git will ignore them in the future.

### Step 4: Commit the Changes to `.gitignore`

git add .gitignore
git commit -m "Update .gitignore to ignore vite.config.js.save and yarn.lock"
git push origin <branch-name>

### Verify
To verify that the files are ignored:

git status

They should no longer appear in the list of untracked files.
