Hello!

I'm trying to remove some files from my github repo but when i try to push the changes i get this error:

! [remote rejected] refs/pull/1/head -> refs/pull/1/head (deny updating a hidden ref) error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/Ashler/ebg-website.git'

Do you know why is this happening?

Thank you!

Duplicate of #36. You need to contact Github support if you are rewriting history and have pull-requests.
