I am getting this same error on my tortiuse git. I finally get the root cause of this error.

The steps which causes this error;

• Create a new branch on head.
• Do some modifications on new branchs
• Somebody also make modifications on head branch
• Try to push your branch

This error will occur if a local branch is created and not pushed until some modifications ara made in head branch. This is a normal thing, since remote head branch do not know anything about your local branch until a push action.

To solve this error, switch the head branch get a full pull action. Then switch your branch and try a push.
