Thanks for the tip!  Sorry, I'm still fumbling around with git,
and I'm not certain if this applies to me.

When I build a release, I follow the @examples on this page
completely literally -- I don't even glance at the text when I
cut&paste it into my shell:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/contributor/minor-release-checklist

If I need to have a few "git rebase origin" in those commands,
could you please push a fix to that page?  It's in
  Documentation/contributor/release-work.itexi
line 70 - 230 or so.

Cheers,
- Graham
