Thanks @pono,

There might be a common scenario to address here (because I don't recall a
force push on our end): when one edits a file from GitHub's' web interface,
it creates a branch in the form of user-patch-n . If that branch is deleted
after it is merged (and it almost always is), the next time this happens
from the same user, n will start back at 1. The result is, over time,
multiple branches will have existed with the same name but different
commits. This might be the cause, because we've done this. If it is the
cause, this is likely to occur again.
