Question

$ git push -u origin master`

fatal: unable to update url base from redirection: asked for: https://[email protected]:/home/demodev/public_html/waqtpar.git/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack redirect: https://[email protected]:/404.html`

Answer 1

Well, as the error says. You are getting a 404 error page which means website is not found. Git of course cannot handle this redirect in this case and so complains.

Your URL is simply wrong. Did you maybe want to use

ssh://[email protected]/home/demodev/public_html/waqtpar.git

or

[email protected]:/home/demodev/public_html/waqtpar.git

or

https://[email protected]/~demodev/waqtpar.git

Answer 2

You may be using browser url instead of git repository clone url.

The url has to end with .git

Answer 3

I just met this problem. I fixed this by disabling proxy (I'm using TortoiseGit)
