Right now I have a git repository checked out with a worktree open to a remote branch.

The worktree head is a week out of date.  The branch has been updated upstream, but when I type `git pull` it doesn't merge anything new.

I'll try to make a terminal log.

It's now 8:37a (-0400).  Started this email at 7:12a .  I'm having trouble directing my behavior.
