just to be sure I did not make any error, here what I have after git pull in my /openwrt folder before to compile my new build. So, git pull gave me ;
james@e6530:~/openwrt$ git pull
Merge made by the 'recursive' strategy.
package/network/services/odhcpd/Makefile | 6 +++---
rules.mk | 4 ++--
2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
and just before that, nano has been opened with '' explain why you want to merge 2 branch etc..
seems ok?
ames @ e6530: ~ / openwrt $ git checkout master

maybe I did something, I tried today to upload my openwrt folder to github rep
james @ e6530: ~ / openwrt $ git status
On the master branch
Your branch is ahead of 'origin / master' by 2 commits.
(use "git push" to publish your local commits)
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file> ..." to include in what will be committed)
package / luci-theme-argon /
package / qBittorrent-openwrt-package /
no changes added to commit but untracked files are present (use "git add" to track them)
I dont really want to do soimething, but I added qbittorrent and argon theme yesteday but it is already compiled on my build, but when I added my folder to git hub via github desktop, those 2 things were appeared
You have added local commits. So, when you now try to update official sources, the system says that you need to "merge" things, as you can't just fast-forward to the global HEAD. You have a different claim to the git history and the official upstream.
You could do "git pull --rebase", which would try to fast-forward to the HEAD while rebasing (actually moving) local local commits to be based on top of the new upstream commits. If there are no conflicts, that should succeed.
Or if you already have a merge, you could do "git rebase origin/master"
You might also try "git log --oneline --graph" first, so that you see your own deviation from the origin/master
Other approach might be to "not commit" the local changes, but just keep them on the directories as non-committed files. I use that approach. Both approaches work, but require different
Ps.
And naturally you have no push rights to the global Openwrt main code or feed repositories, so you can only change files in
your local directories (and local git repo), and
your own github fork if you have created that (which I assume you have not yet done, and would actually only need if you want to issue Pull Requests to upstream).
for main Openwrt, the git log upstream is straight, as no merges are allowed. Developers directly push the new commits to make a straight history:
perus@ub2010:/Openwrt/r7800$ git log --oneline --graph
* ec0c6c1143 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) tools/zstd: compile with cmake
* 7534c8a2e1 tools/zstd: update to 1.4.8
* ddab795b37 rules: fix empty COMMITCOUNT/AUTORELEASE

* 4c6c1c6dd0 trusted-firmware-a.mk: pass package version as version identifier
* a04bffebba arm-trusted-firmware-mvebu: pass commit ids to a3700-utils/mv-ddr-marvell

* 8f3bd881c9 arm-trusted-firmware-mvebu: update to v2.4
But for the packages and LuCI feeds, where there are PRs and their merges, you can see similar that has now accidentally happened locally for you. There are simultaneously authored different commits side by side, and the the PR is accepted, the side commits get "merged" to the main code.

Yes, there are now 2 "your commits" that the official OpenWrt knows nothing about. So, you are no anymore fully on the official sources. Last know official commit is ddab795b37 but in addition there are +2 extra commits...
There is your private commit and your merge commit.
Welcome to the nice world of git, which is really versatile, but there is a learning curve. Having your own modifications on top of the official code required some careful working every time when you update sources. You better start reading about git. There is lots of good stuff available from github, Atlassian, whatever
make dirclean does not touch the source code (the git repo). It only removes the compiled build artefacts and the compiled toolchain.

in same times, I still see that : I wonder if I can remove that kind of status?
