After my GCP instance creation, I was able to connect to it from my macbook’s terminal window.
But, when I tried git pull, i got following message:
jupyter@my-fastai-instance : ~/tutorials/fastai $ git pull
remote: Enumerating objects: 25, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (25/25), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (16/16), done.
remote: Total 25 (delta 12), reused 18 (delta 9), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (25/25), done.

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:

Please commit your changes or stash them before you merge.
Aborting
To overcome, this, stashed local changes as:
git stash
After, that, retried:
git pull
And it worked like charm:
jupyter@my-fastai-instance : ~/tutorials/fastai $ git pull
Already up-to-date.
Just in case other are seeing the same!
