You have changes in your local AdminLTE:

if (!isset($api)) {
   die("Direct call to api_FTL.php is not allowed!");
}

git is probably complaining about this change and you need to remove them.

Since you will update (and loose your changes), execute:

cd /var/www/html/admin/
git reset --hard

The changes will be gone and you can upgrade normally.

smacks forehead completely forgot about that one...
Thanks!
Would it be an option to return git-errors like these directly?

[rdwebdesign]

Is it fixed?

[MrHappy]
