local branch beta behind the remote issue

[gk12277]

I am using semantic release for handling versioning in my repo. But recently am facing issues when running the job in gitlab ci. I have a beta branch where beta versions are released. But when the changes are added to beta semantic release runs and shows

The local branch beta is behind the remote one, therefore a new version won't be published

Using the debug flag got some more logs

error: failed to push some refs to 'https://username:[secure]@repo_url'
hint: Updates were rejected because a pushed branch tip is behind its remote
hint: counterpart. Check out this branch and 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.
