fatal: The upstream branch of your current branch does not match the name of your current branch

by

This happens if the name of the upstream branch and local branch do not match, which sometimes happens, and usually is unwanted:

> git status
On branch release-1.2.3
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

To solve this, run:

git branch --unset-upstream

Then, once you run git push again, you will be asked to use the --set-upstream option to set the upstream branch correctly.
