This error may appear during deployment:

error: failed to push some refs to '[...]'
hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do
hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing
hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes
hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

This message indicates that the Git repository on your instance has content that is not present locally. To proceed, you can use the following command to force the synchronization:

git push -f stackhero main
