This is vastly different from any 'pull upstream' email I've received 
from you.  It is extremely uncool for me to pull, and receive something 
other than what your email specified.

Nonetheless, I looked over the changes and they look OK, so I took the 
lazy route and kept them.

For the future, I would perhaps recommend creating an upstream-jeff 
branch at the time of submission, if you insist upon continuing to push 
stuff into the upstream branch in the window between submission and 
pull.  I do this with Linus:  I create an 'upstream-linus' branch, 
branched off of 'upstream', at the time of submission.  After Linus 
pulls, I delete the branch.
