I just sent a reply with this. We crossed on the 'net. I have changes
to detect and report this, but yes, it would be the clone tripping us
up. I've never seen the heads vs head change, but all my machines are
1.7.x git installs. I'll go have a look at a 1.6 git and see if that
is in fact something to detect and handle.

But since it only happens on your local clone, it really shouldn't be
a git issue .. and is more likely just with the clone.
