Hello! Yesterday I submitted my first merge request to a KDE software! I forked the repo, applied the edits, committed them and pushed to my fork, and then from gitlab created a merge request. after a few hours, the author pushed something into the master, making my merge request 1 commit behind the master. On the merge request details page, I now get this error:

Merge blocked: the source branch must be rebased onto the target branch.  [rebase without pipeline]  [rebase]

If I try to click on [rebase], I get this red error:

Source branch is protected from force push

what should I do to make my merge request "mergeable" again?

Sure I promise not to do it anymore. Calm down. Take a deep breath at first! :)) Could you explain the right way to do it? I'm not expert in using git. Explain the correct way to deal with the situation.

Your first way was the right way, rebasing

Mmm... And what if it had conflict and I got error?
