更新被拒绝，因为您当前分支的尖端在后面...不正确

Question

Updates were rejected, because the tip of your current branch is behind its remote counterpart.

I know, how to resolve it, however, the subject of my question is different.

1. I created two branches
2. I added one commit to each of them
3. I pushed them into remote repository
4. I rebased second-branch into first-branch
5. I pushed both branches to remote repository
6. Success

1. I created two branches
2. I added one commit to each of them
3. I pushed them into remote repository
4. I rebased first-branch into second-branch
5. I pushed both branches to remote repository
6. I got that error

How come remote repository is ahead of me (I am behind), when I have 2 local commits and only 1 remote commit?

What I am missing? Thank you.

EDIT:

What does "I rebased into second-branch into first-branch" mean? That you rebased second-branch onto the tip of first-branch?

Sorry, I did not pay attention to my grammar for a while. I corrected it

"I rebased second-branch into first-branch" means

git checkout first-branch

git rebase second-branch

Answer 1

After the first push your local and remote branches look like this:

first-branch   A
second-branch  B

After the rebase of first-branch onto second-branch, they look like this:

first-branch   B-A'
second-branch  B

When you attempt to push first-branch, your local branch is two commits ahead of the remote ( B and A' ) and the remote is one commit ahead of your local branch ( A ).
