this is strange indeed. I confirm that 544ac628f598bf94a777a3fc2eed39f645f9a01d
is on the master branch, while ad8cb7af8fc572bb3d11cd0344bd2bed3b9d653f
is not present in my git checkout.

Did you do a "guix pull --commit=..." to a commit on a different branch?
This is the only explanation I can see. You could safely pull to a new
commit that you know to be on the master branch. Or if you want to
examine a bit more, you can look at your pull history with
   guix pull --list-generations
to check, for instance, whether a previous commit corresponds to one on
the master branch, and could go back to it with
   guix pull --switch-generation=NNN
where NNN is the number (not the commit), and do a "guix pull" from
there.

But the result should be the same in any case, it depends only on the
commit where you pull to, not where you come from.
