A merge request works ok if the downstream (forked) repo has all of the
upstream (parent) repo's commits. But if the upstream repo has new commits on
it, then the merge request shows 0 commits. This is because
`MergeRequest._commits` can't find the upstream HEAD in the forked repo, so the
`log()` doesn't work. We should have a smarter technique for finding the list
of added commits. We should also have better error handling and message to the
user when it can't be found since that'll probably still happen sometimes.
