git push with errors

git push -u origin master
ssh_exchange_identification: read: Operation timed out
fatal: Could not read from remote repository. 

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

[rejected]

git push
To github.com:user/proyect.git
! [rejected]        master -> master (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'github.com:user/proyect.git'
hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do
hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing
hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes
hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

No configured push destination

git push
fatal: No configured push destination.
Either specify the URL from the command-line or configure a remote repository using

    git remote add <name> <url> 

and then push using the remote name 

    git push <name>

No upstream branch

git push
fatal: The current branch master has no upstream branch.
To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use

   git push --set-upstream origin master

error: src refspec master does not match any
