GitHub is not accepting our updated branches and allowing us to merge new commits.

I think your product is more trouble than it is worth. I am taking an intro to software engineering class and the teacher is making us use GitHub because it is "user friendly" and intuitive. I sat through your tutorial exercise and it did not mention how to incorporate code worked on in visual studios into your GitHub repository. This product is terrible for beginners because you don't provide adequate introductory training documentation or helpful tutorials. I will be referring anyone that asks me about GitHub to not use it.
