Did you `git add` your changes and `git commit`-ed them first? `git push` operates on recorded commits, so if your local branch does not contain any new commits compared to what the remote—receiving—branch has, there's clearly nothing to push. All in all, it's best to start with reading some introductory material on the subject.
