问题
There is a remote branch called "my-remote" that I had previously pushed to with no problem. As of today, I can't push and I get different errors.
First error I got was:
hint: Updates were rejected because a pushed branch tip is behind its remote hint: counterpart. If you did not intend to push that branch, you may want to hint: specify branches to push or set the 'push.default' configuration hint: variable to 'current' or 'upstream' to push only the current branch.
I did some research and ran this hoping it would solve the problem:
git config push.default tracking
after running that I ran the push again:
git push https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git
I got the following error:
pushing to remote 'https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git', which is not the upstream of
your current branch 'my-remote', without telling me what to push
to update which remote branch.
I have tried running this:
git push master:my-remote https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git
but it tells me that:
fatal: remote part of refspec is not a valid name in https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git
回答1:
If you want to push your master branch on the my-remote remote branch, the correct syntax would be:
git push https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git master:my-remote
(first: remote repo reference, the refspec, from git push man page)
Regarding your first error message, if it really didn't tell you to merge, then a git pull --rebase might have been needed.
Or at least a:
git config --global push.default current
(As mentioned in "Configure Git to Only Push Current Branch").
If you are in the local branch 'my-remote' (which is the case, according to the command), you can make sure the upstream branch is set by making a:
git push -u https://github.com/someurl/mybranch.git my-remote:my-remote

There are 9 steps to pushing to an existing git repo.
I tried "git push --set-upstream origin master" and got the following error:
C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\app\User-app-40d72a288916>git push --set-upstream origin master

! [rejected] master -> master (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://User@bitbucket.org/User/
app.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 merge the remote changes (e.g.,
hint: 'git pull') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.
I then tried "git pull" and got the lastest changes:
C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\app\User-app-40d72a288916>git pull

* [new branch] master -> origin/master
There is no tracking information for the current branch.
Please specify which branch you want to merge with.
See git-pull(1) for details
git pull <remote> <branch>
If you wish to set tracking information for this branch you can do so with:
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/<branch> master
I did a "git push" and the changes failed:

"git add -A" and "git commit" did not work because there was nothing to commit.
C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\app\User-app-40d72a288916>git add -A
C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\app\User-app-40d72a288916>git commit
On branch master nothing to commit, working directory clean
"git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master" seemed to do the trick.
C:\Users\User\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\app\User-app-40d72a288916>git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master
Branch master set up to track remote branch master from origin.
However, a "git push origin master" didn't work because the tip of the current branch is behind it remote counterpart.

A "git pull" was needed to merge the repo's.

Merge made by the 'recursive' strategy.
After executing the "git pull", "git push origin master" was exactly what was needed to get the sync commanded working in Visual Studio git plugin.
