[Swan-dev] another run, another odd failure

I would like to know!  Somehow I wandered into a part of git that I
don't understand.

There are parts of git that I don't have a mental model of and don't
know where to find a simple guide.  Cookbooks are kind of the opposite
of what I want.

Superstitiously, I think that (once) pulling from my desktop instead
of upstream set me on the wrong path.

I think that I've now fixed it via
	$ git reset --hard origin/master
	warning: refname 'origin/master' is ambiguous.
	warning: refname 'origin/master' is ambiguous.
	HEAD is now at df4ab8d34 makefiles: fix grammar of a message
	$ git pull
	Already up to date.
	$ git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
	master

I don't know why the refname is ambiguous.  Twice.

I had previously tried this with no understandable effect
	$ git reset --hard

Now I will see if all is well.
