To be clear, I just executed this sequence of commands:

lucas@OctoQuant:~/Documents/Shotwell/Repositories/Master$ git checkout faces
Switched to branch 'faces'
lucas@OctoQuant:~/Documents/Shotwell/Repositories/Master$ git merge master
Auto-merging src/Photo.vala
Merge made by the 'recursive' strategy.
 src/MediaDataRepresentation.vala |    2 +-
 src/Photo.vala                   |    8 ++++++--
 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
lucas@OctoQuant:~/Documents/Shotwell/Repositories/Master$ git status
# On branch faces
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/faces' by 2 commits.
#
nothing to commit (working directory clean)

So I can merge all the changes from master into faces without incident.
