What is the solution for this problem: 'push rejected because it was not a simple fast-forward'? Is it appropriate to use 'force: true' as an override? (spck.io)

The error 'push rejected because it was not a simple fast-forward' occurs when you try to push changes to a Git branch that has been updated by someone else. To solve this problem, you will need to merge the changes to your local branch and then push the changes again.

Using 'force: true' as an override is not recommended because it can overwrite changes made by someone else, leading to conflicts and data loss. It is better to merge the changes and resolve any conflicts before pushing the changes to the remote branch.
