Oh, good call.

Indeed, thanks again.

The last piece of the puzzle is the origin/master branch isn't always
the base branch it's merging into. I believe the proper way to do this
is like so. First we add another set of refs to fetch in our .git/config:

    [remote "origin"]
      fetch = +refs/pull/*/merge:refs/merge/origin/*

Now we can use this to get the base branch for the PR:

    refs/merge/origin/100^..refs/pull/origin/100

Which returns the proper set of commits.


Cheers,
