Maybe change 2x to 'twice', and explain it was in the display of pending 
revisions and this should only happen if you've done merge --force. 
(Which does seem to be the case.)

So you could say that maybe merge --force should not force it that much 
:) but I would agree that status should not crash if you have done this.


  Arguably the bug is in merge allowing this to happen,
I would agree that merge should probably guard against this too, as well 
as status being defensive.
