I can't recall ever seeing an upload refused because it wasn't against the latest commit. What's the error message you get? Or is it possible that you might be misremembering such an incident?
It'll depend on how the project is configured. If a project allows merges, or is configured to rebase automatically, it won't matter. You'll not ever be able to merge if the project is set to fast-forward-only. It didn't used to reject these uploads, but I could see that easily being something that would be added.
