Yup:

    From: ELPA update <do.not.reply@elpa.gnu.org>
    Subject: [GNU ELPA] Sync failure: colorful-mode has diverged!
    To: Elias G. Perez <eg642616@gmail.com>

    The scripts failed to synchronize with the upstream version
    because the two have diverged.  This is usually the result of an
    overly-optimistic force-push.  Please refrain from using force-push
    on such public branches.
    
    The archive will not be able to track your code until you resolve this
    problem by (re?)merging the code that's in "emacs/elpa.git".  You can do 
that
    with the following commands:
    
        git fetch https://git.sv.gnu.org/git/emacs/elpa.git 
externals/colorful-mode
        git merge FETCH_HEAD
    
    Of course, feel free to undo the changes it may introduce in the file
    contents: we only need the metadata to indicate that this commit was merged.
    
    You can consult the latest error output in
    [the sync-failure 
file](https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/colorful-mode-sync-failure.txt).
    
    ## The current error output was the following:
    
    Upstream of colorful-mode has DIVERGED!
