I think you may have amended the last commit that Gerrit merged rather
than creating a new commit. Did you run `git commit --amend` on top of
the last upstream commit?
If so the easiest way to fix this is probably to `git checkout master &&
git reset --hard origin/master` then make your changes and finally `git
commit` without the --amend.
