git: updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do not have locally

Question

I\'m working on a team with a few developers using git on BitBucket. We are all working on a dev branch, not pushing to master until a release.

Answer 1

This is how I solved this issue:

1. git pull origin master
2. git push origin master

This usually happens when your remote branch is not updated. And after this if you get an error like "Please enter a commit message" Refer to this ( For me xiaohu Wang answer worked :) )
