Did we ever figure out what causes this? I have a theory, but I don't really understand...

(Theory: the dwu script does "git pull --ff-only upstream develop" straight from the remote repo into the local develop branch. This doesn't update the local copy of "remotes/upstream/develop" that was created by a "git fetch" sometime in the past. This is what the current branch is being compared to. I have no idea whether this makes sense, and if so how to deal with it...)

Hmm. That makes sense, but it appears to be tracked (as it should be), based on [personal profile] swaldman's comment above:
