Changes on Gitub not syncing to Shopify Store theme

Technical Q&A
1

I have just set up the GitHub integration for my Shopify theme. The repo’s seem setup right, and the branch is showing fine in the theme selection screen.

However, when I try to push a change to the master, the “View Logs” screen is showing an error of:

Error: assets/theme.scss, Validation failed: Cannot overwrite generated asset 'assets/theme.scss'

So none of the changes I am making are actually showing on Shopify, only on GitHub.

Any help with this would be extremely helpful!
Thanks

I’m wondering if your issue is from Shopify deprecating use to .scss files. If you want to use .scss you need to use something like gulp to process it into a .css file first.

@Arvanitas forgot to update this post, I figured it out… Haha, it was so simple. I accidentally was editing the .scss file instead of the scss.liquid file.
