No, this was a good thing.

You should own the master branch. I should be tracking you.

Tuncer has hinted you about the 'create-topic-branches' script.
Here is a more low-level hint, "your" branch is as you figured out
parent number two (or 1, or the right, or ?) of the merge commit
you found and here is another way to dig it out. The way you did
it ought to work, but perhaps this fetch was missing:

$ git fetch upstream pu

$ git log --oneline --parents upstream/pu | grep jn
2009b7a 7ba2cc7 65f3db8 Merge branch 'jn/gen_stream' into pu
6d1a56d c0895d1 2016a08 Merge branch 'jn/ic-docs-without-java' into dev
333d2b2 ad8ff21 109a257 Merge branch 'jn/sasl-format_report' into ccase/r13b04_dev
61489dd aad8754 1686757 Merge branch 'jn/supervisor_child_count_only' into ccase/r13b04_dev

$ git show --name-only 65f3db8

    Add new gen_stream behaviour for efficiently consuming serial streams

    Introduce a new behaviour for serially processing text files, generating
    lazy or infinite streams or providing a serial interface for a binary.
    Implement the behaviour functionality using a gen_server while internally
    managing multiple processes to load the stream.  Stripe stream data
    across the worker processes to enable overlapped I/O when reading from
    the source. Impose a simple API for consuming the stream serially, a block
    at a time.

    The initial arguments for the gen_stream specify the number of processes
    used, the number of data chunks per process, the size of each chunk a
    blocking factor for reading multiple chunks at a time and an optional
    function parameter to transform the data while buffering it.  The serial
    stream delivers the (potentially transformed) data from the internal
    process buffers as it is requested by the calling application.
