I also saw this message. This is how I deal:
First of all, try syncing:
git checkout master git pull git push git checkout develop git pull git push
After that, you can try the command again:
git flow feature checkout MY_FEATURE_NAME
If the problem persists, try the following:
git checkout develop git flow feature track MY_FEATURE_NAME git flow feature checkout MY_FEATURE_NAME git pull origin feature/MY_FEATURE_NAME
I do not know why this error occurs. But hopefully these commands will help you deal.
If you really want to know why this message is happening, perhaps a good first step for this is to look under the hood and study the source code for the git stream here https://github.com/raoulmillais/hgflow/blob/master/git-flow-feature # L495 .
