Push to github repository is not working

Question

I am getting an error "fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/link:username/repo.git/': The requested URL returned error: 400" while I try to push some new files to repository. But I can do push on existing files which I pulled from the repository earlier. The problem is with the new files. I am using 'ubuntu 14.04 LTS' and my my commands on terminal are as follows:-

git init git add . git commit -m "made some changes" git remote add origin https://github.com/link:username/repo.git git push -u origin master

Can you paste the complete URL here ? Seems like the way URL mentioned could be wrong. — Royal Pinto

Did you checked --set-upstream option ? And why is link:username in url? AFAIK urls on github are like https://github.com/[your_user_name]/[repo].git

Isn't that [your_user_name] should be [username_of_person_owning_the_repo] ? Ex: If you are owning the project and if I am pushing the changes, username would be yours and not mine.
