I'm using from git version 2.7.4, with submodules. My project structure is like this:
main/
file1
file2
subm1/
file3
file4
subm2/
file5
According to this question I want to push in submodule. For example, after changing in file3, I'm using this commands to push it:
cd subm1/
git add file3
git commit -m 'Update file3'
git push origin master
I have recieved this error:
Pushing submodule 'subm1'
To <submodule git repo>
! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast-forward)
error: failed to push some refs to <submodule git repo>
hint: Updates were rejected because a pushed branch tip is behind its remote

hint: (e.g. 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.
Unable to push submodule 'subm1'
fatal: Failed to push all needed submodules!
but when I use pull like this recieved Already up-to-date:
subm1$ git pull origin master
From https://gitlab.com/systemnegar-ai/compare
* branch master -> FETCH_HEAD
Already up-to-date.
How can I push it into submodule origin repository?
My code was not in master branch, switching to master branch solve this issue.
