You probably need to run git annex merge. 

If you pull and then immediatly push, git-annex does not get a chance to
run, so its behavior of normally transparently handling merging of its
branch doesn't happen. So the sequence needs to be pull, git annex merge, push

I'd like to get a post-pull hook into git so git annex merge can run
automatically after pulls, but it's not there yet. (Git's post-merge hook
could be used but does not always get run after a pull.)
