Change work tree to head, try running:

git reset --hard

If you are the only the person working on the project, what you can do is:

git checkout master
git push origin +HEAD

  • 1+ for your help. thanks. Reason is, on both repo(local and remote) my working branch was same. that's why I was getting that error. – Muneeb Nasir Jan 08 '15 at 07:34
