Git push does nothing with Google Code repo as remote

Question

I have a git project at Google Code. https://code.google.com/p/jawabot/

I did some commits to master branch. They're fine, visible in git log. Now when I do git push, I get "

$ git push
Password: 
Everything up-to-date

And sometimes:

$ git push
Password: 
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing    https://dynawest@code.google.com/p/jawabot//info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed

Update:

$ git remote -v
origin  https://dynawest@code.google.com/p/jawabot/ (fetch)
origin  https://dynawest@code.google.com/p/jawabot/ (push)

What's wrong? Me or Google? (I'm git newbie.)

If someone was so kind and tried to push something there, I'd be glad (I assume I will be able to revert such change).

Update:

Based on answers, I tried (git:// url guessed):

$ git remote add gc git@code.google.com:jawabot/jawabot.git
$ git remote -v
gc      git@code.google.com:jawabot/jawabot.git (fetch)
gc      git@code.google.com:jawabot/jawabot.git (push)
origin  https://dynawest@code.google.com/p/jawabot/ (fetch)
origin  https://dynawest@code.google.com/p/jawabot/ (push)
ondra@ondra-doma:/mnt/ssd1/_projekty/JawaBot-2.0-git$ git push gc

ssh: connect to host code.google.com port 22: Connection timed out
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I wonder why would anyone put -1 – Ondra Žižka Aug 07 '11 at 05:30 — Ondra Žižka, Aug 07 '11 at 05:30

The steps for you would be . Did you forget 1

git add <files>
git commit -m 'message'
git push origin master

Nope, as I said, commits are in `git log`. – Ondra Žižka Aug 07 '11 at 04:41

In the end it turned out that I forgot part of step 3 :) – Ondra Žižka Aug 07 '11 at 05:25

What you are trying to do is answered in the FAQ: http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/GitFAQ

Both why just a git push would not work and also on supporting https only and not other protocols.

Why does Git refuse to push, saying "everything up to date"?

git push with no additional arguments only pushes branches that exist in the remote already. If the remote repository is empty, nothing will be pushed. In this case, explicitly specify a branch to push, e.g. git push master.

Can I access my repository over git:// or ssh:// instead of https:// ?

In order to take advantage of the advanced scalability and load-balancing features of Google's production servers, we are only able to accept incoming HTTP connections. We have no plans to support protocols other than the Git Smart HTTP protocol introduced in v1.6.6.

We do support both anonymous (read-only) and authenticated (read/write) access over HTTPS.

Solved - It was missing the branch specification...

Potentially what you might want to try doing is instead of using the https address, to use the git protocol, like git://git.foo.
