Analysis

The code in CodeArts Repo is different from the code in your local repository. Therefore, when git pull is executed, the remote code will be merged to the local code. The dialog box displayed asks if you confirm the merge, and prompts you to enter a commit message.

Solution

Go to the local repository directory and run the following command in Git Bash:

Cancel the merge.
```
git merge --abort
```
Merge the master branch of the remote repository (origin) to the current branch:
```
git merge origin/master
```
