Git 1.8: it push error: dst ref refs/heads/master receives from more than one src

Question

Another issue with git 1.8:

$ git push
error: dst ref refs/heads/master receives from more than one src.
error: failed to push some refs to \'gitosis@xxx.xx:xxx.         


        

Answer 1

in my case I had a space in branch name:

git push origin 353-applyPermissions :353-applyPermissions

returns > error: dst ref refs/heads/353-applyPermissions receives from more than one src. but this one works:

git push origin 353-applyPermissions:353-applyPermissions
