Push origin master error on new repository

I was having the same issue and then smacked myself in the head because I hadn't actually added my project files.

git add -A
git commit -am "message"
git push origin master

The error message leads to the conclusion that you do not have a master branch in your local repository. Either push your main development branch (git push origin my-local-master:master which will rename it to master on github) or make a commit first. You can not push a completely empty repository.

I had the same issue. I deleted the .git folder then followed the following commands

1. $ git init
2. $ git add .
3. $ git remote add origin [email protected]:project/project.git
4. $ git commit -m "Initial version"
5. $ git push origin master

I have same issue . it's solved my problem . İf you init your git . you have to do on Terminal

1) git add .

2)git commit -m "first commit"

For send to bitbucket

3) git push -u origin --all # pushes up the repo and its refs for the first time
