It's certainly possible. It looks like you committed once on your own 
master branch before you did any of the things mentioned in this message. 
Then you created a new branch, made a commit on it, undid the commit, and 
switched back to "master". "git log origin/master..master" will show you 
the 1 commit that you have on master.
