I made two merge requests; the first merged cleanly onto master.

The second is not so nice.  I'll give the detail below, but my
question is:  how can I tell if a merge request is going to force a
merge commit instead of nicely laying on top of master?

My problem merge request:
  http://gitorious.org/prlawrence-test/prlawrence-test/merge_requests/1117

In my local clone of prlawrence-test:
$ git checkout -b T2
Switched to a new branch 'T2'

$ git pull origin refs/merge-requests/1117
>From gitorious.org:prlawrence-test/prlawrence-test
 * branch            refs/merge-requests/1117 -> FETCH_HEAD
Merge made by recursive.

$ git log --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit master..T2
ffccc2e Merge commit 'refs/merge-requests/1117' of
gitorious.org:prlawrence-test/prlawrence-test into T2
fcf2159 Modified first T2 text file.
78ac3cb Added another text file for T2.
6f8b8a5 Added text file for T2.

You can see the merge commit...  it occurs because the merge request
does not already incorporate the latest changes from prlawrence-
test:master.

Is there a git command I can use from the master branch that will tell
me whether or not the merge request will apply nicely?  Or do I have
to create the integration branch and pull the merge-request to find
out?
