I know about that, but I don't see how it would be possible here. That happens
when you are using a heavyweight checkout and your working tree is out of date
with your local branch *and* your local branch is out of date with the
upstream branch.

- From what he described, this doesn't really seem possible (unless he used bzr
co --lightweight at some point to commit to the same local branch.)
