If you're pushing an update to a branch (i.e. a different commit onto the the same branch name) you'll need to force-push. You can do that via "push -f" or by prepending a "+" to the branch name:

$ git push -f downstream HEAD
# ...or...
$ git push downstream +HEAD

I tried to pull upstream into my master and then rebase on top of that so I have the newest changes, and it will say I am 1 commit ahead of upstream and no commits behind but whenever I try to push it still has this issue. I even tried resetting all of my changes and starting from where I was 5 days ago and I was able to push it correctly to see if it was my new changes, but that also doesn't work.
