Git How do you force a normal branch after forking (not doing with pull request)


Strange requirement but in case you still need it..

Lets say you forked a repo and for some reason instead of creating a PR, you wanted to push that as a normal branch.

Please ensure you created a branch first and then check out

git branch mytarget 

 git checkout mytarget

 git push mynewBranch.git

This org.jetbrains.kotlin.util.FileAnalysisException with a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: source must not be null is a known issue that can sometimes occur with the Kotlin compiler. It seems to be related to how the compiler analyzes certain source code structures. When this happens, you need to go clean your project and do another rebuild.  For my case, I was trying to test out the databinding = true feature.
