rejected master - master fetch first error failed to push some refs to git github com abc70 new git

Question

Hi,

I am getting the below error when trying to push data from local to GitHub.

! [rejected]        master -> master (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:abc70/new.git'
hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do
hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing
hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes
hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

Thank You

Hi@akhtar,

 Here you tried to push your repo to GitHub. But before that fetch the metadata from GitHub.

$ git fetch

Answer 3

You get this error when your Github repository has a file which is not in your local computer.

(when you create a file in the repository after doing a push).

Solution1 : Cut that file you have in the Github and paste in the local machine. Now do git push -u origin master.

Solution2 :  git push origin master --force . This will override the content in the github repository with that in your local machine.
