I keep getting the error

You'll need to log into the site that has git sync and play with git.

When you do a git pull origin master,
git pull performs a merge, which often creates a merge commit. Therefore, by default, pulling from the remote is not a harmless operation: it can create a new commit SHA hash value that didn’t exist before. This behavior can confuse a user, because what feels like it should be a harmless download operation actually changes the commit history in unpredictable ways.

To avoid this, you need

git pull --ff-only
(or not? read on to see which one fits your requirements)

With git pull --ff-only, Git will update your branch only if it can be “fast-forwarded” without creating new commits. If this can’t be done, git pull --ff-only simply aborts with an error message.

You can configure your Git client to always use --ff-only by default, so you get this behavior even if you forget the command-line flag:

This plugin has worked out of the box, but I also have run into issues before if I have to monkey with git at all (like change branches).

I don't have SSH access to the server sadly

You can add the --ff option in the plugin source code like here:
#246
This PR fixes it.
Modern git versions need an explicit merge strategy
