...without losing my configuration and content?

You've done changes to the theme itself? Configuration changes to your site shouldn't be affected by this.

The theme usually is under themes/hugo-goa in your base hugo folder and is not usually modified.

If you go to that directory on the terminal, and type git status what do you see?

If there are no changes, do a git log and make a note the last working revision you were on (in case any of the new changes mess with your site). After that a simple git pull should suffice. Rebuild your site and make sure everything is working as you expect before you redeploy it.

** Note, just for peace of mind you might want to take a backup of the whole folder before doing all this.
