It should, so long as you're using the native transport and 
origin/mybranch actually tracks mybranch on origin.

"git push" doesn't update it, but the code that implements the native 
transport does update it if it succeeds.

(Actually, I'm not 100% sure that, if you update origin through some other 
channel with exactly the commit that you now have in mybranch locally, and 
then try the push, it will update the local tracking for that branch; is 
that what you've hit?)
