Ah, doh, I just hadn't checked out those branches, I just needed to  
check them out:

git checkout -b pristine-tar refs/remotes/origin/pristine-tar
git checkout -b upstream refs/remotes/origin/upstream

The merge happened automatically after your 'pristine-tar data for pd- 
pdogg_0.25.1.orig.tar.bz" commit  
667bf3d23add9b4ace5c45f29d8941762eb2b9e3 after I did what I always do  
to update (git pull).  I don't know why it did that, but it doesn't  
seem to hurt anything.
