IIUC the aforementioned error comes up when a pull results in tip being on a different branch—that is, when pull --rebase would _automatically and unexpectedly_ try to rebase the queue onto a different branch. Having a `pull` land you on a different branch seems like confusing behavior to be avoided. Or am I misunderstanding the issue?
