✗ Outstanding merge-back: `release/2.4` still owes a land onto `develop`

  Workflow `com.tovio.gitflow@1` coordinated this land onto 2 targets:
    main      landed
    develop   outstanding

  The obligation is durable — it survives restarts until discharged or abandoned.

  Complete the outstanding target(s):
    tovio land --resume

What to read

  • Error reference — the three-part message standard (what happened, why, what to do next), the exit-code classes, the --json shape, and the everyday codes. It is a curated subset, so it may not name this one: TVO-FLOW-007 is in the FLOW area and carries the same three-part message either way.
  • Troubleshooting — the diagnostic commands and recovery paths behind the most common failures.

Still stuck, or is the message wrong?

Report it. The link carries only this code and the surface; describe the behaviour in your own words and never paste secrets, capability tokens, session strings, or private repository data.
