swaldman~/dw (develop)$ git status
# On branch develop
# Your branch is ahead of 'upstream/develop' by 540 commits.
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...)
