I wonder, also, if there could be a way to alert users that their 
working tree is dirty before all the git pull blather comes out, scaring 
their poor little souls?

Well, it's their fault, isn't it?

Yes, it is.  But that's no reason not to try to produce a nicer warning.

fatal: Entry 'src/netlist/EocCompiler.cc' not uptodate. Cannot merge.

Sorry, this is the first time Git can realize that the dirty working 
directory conflicts with the changes about to be applied.

Ah, this makes sense.  It has to do all the other stuff first and only
when it comes across one that won't "fit" does it complain.  This makes
more sense now...
