The issue is evident from the error message itself.

execute git log and you should notice two different commits for the same changes. i.e. Change Id will be same for different commit ids.

You should revert latest duplicate commit and merge the same with existing one.

Use the following commands for solution.

 git reset --soft HEAD^
 git status
 git commit --amend

Now try to push the changes 'git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master'

Chances are, there may be new changes on the remote that you do not yet have in your local repository. You may want to either git pull --rebase or git pull followed by a merge before attempting to git push again.
