Everything went fine until this point, but then I get a number of errors:

address@hidden ~/lilypond-git (dev/measure_counter)$ git cl issue 2445
Issue number: 2445 (http://codereview.appspot.com/2445)
address@hidden ~/lilypond-git (dev/measure_counter)$ git cl upload
Unable to determine default branch to diff against.
Either pass complete "git diff"-style arguments, like
  git cl upload origin/master
or verify this branch is set up to track another (via the --track argument to
"git checkout -b ...").

I have no idea what's going on here :(  I don't want to nuke the build
directory and start again, branch-free.  Hopefully there's another
option!
