This is a work-around for the error message of “Cannot upload due to unexpected history”

It is what I call “Manual and hard reset.” I got to using it when another method failed me in a particular situation some time back.

1. Delete the repo of the ‘troublesome’ book on your D43 account using a browser
2. Make sure tS is closed, and not running
3. Locate the folder for the book and copy the entire folder (e.g. ha-mat-text-reg) to your desktop
4. Open the tS program, and on the home screen, delete the particular book (e.g. Matthew)
5. Add the book (say, Matthew) as a new project. And when you done this, go to the home screen, and then Exit tS again
6. Now go back to the TRANSLATIONS folder and locate the new folder for Matthew (e.g. ha-mat-text-reg) and open it
7. Open in its own window, the old folder you had copied to desktop. And then transfer all files/folders from the old one to the new one with the exception of the .GIT folder
NOTE: you must NOT copy the git folder from the desktop location into the new folder in Translations
8. Finally reopen tS and try uploading the book again
