This means someone probably pushed out some new stuff you don't have yet (or you did something evil, like uncommitted something you already pushed out before). So what to do is cg-update, that will merge the new stuff, then try to cg-push again.

cg-push already spits out a somewhat more helpful message about this in some cases, I'll make it do so in all cases. Thanks.
