Basically, with one remote origin I do 'git fetch' and then a 'git status' which tells me my status as compared to my remote at which point I decide wether I want to rebase or pull/merge. If I'm working with another remote repository 'upstream' that I perhaps don't have permissions to and then my branches are not tracking against, how would I do something similar to be able to first see how my branch compares to the remote and then either rebase or pull/merge. Am I missing something in git status that allows me to see my status as compared to another remote?
