I cloned my repository with:

git clone ssh://xxxxx/xx.git 

but after I made a few changes, I tried pushing these changes I got the following error

error: src refspec master does not match any.  
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://xxxxx.com/project.git'

you probably haven’t committed those changes and you’re trying to push them.

Commit them first and then push.

For me I had to make sure the public key is properly configured in the server (appended in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys) and in github/bitbucket (added to my SSH keys on github or bitbucket) - they need to match.

Then:

git add --all :/
git commit -am 'message'
git push -u origin master

Worked for me in the end.

Try this, it worked for me

touch README
git add README
git add (all other files)
git commit -m 'reinitialized files'
git push origin master --force  # <- caution, --force can delete others work.

The error is due to the fact that the repository is empty, you have to first make a commit.

git commit -m "initial commit"

git push -u origin master

To those who has the same problem, just go to manage branches and remotes under version control, then add up the branches you are trying to push the changes, click track, then thats it
