Looks like someone committed, pushed, rebased, committed, and then did a force push to rewrite the history.

A symptom of Brian Campbell's answer: Git non-fast-forward rejected

I believe what you are running into is that someone rewrote history in the repo. Not a great situation to be in. Have you pulled? You may need to clone a new copy of the repo since your history is no longer in line with the server's history and make your changes again.
