Question

I'm hosting on Heroku. I want to make a push:

git push master Heroku

I gets the message:

error: src refspec master does not match any.
error: failed to push some refs to '[e-mail]: etc ...'

Answer 1

This is work for me:-

git push heroku HEAD:master

Answer 2

I have expericed the problem you have. I solved this problem like this

1. make file whatever
2. commit

3. push

   $ touch readme
   
   $ git add .
   
   $ git commit -m "init"
   
   $ git push heroku master
   

I don't know why.

Answer 3

I got this error when trying to push to Heroku when I wasn't on my local master branch.

I resolved it with

git push heroku my_branch_name:master

and replacing my_branch_name with the name of the git branch I was on. I think this tells Heroku to receive this local branch on Heroku's master branch.

Answer 4

This worked for me.

git config --global user.email "[e-mail]"

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
