Summary:
format-diff.sh, a.k.a. 'make format', would use 'master'
to decide which commits are probably unpublished. Much better to use
facebook remote master since local master may not be caught up and may
have its own unpublished commits. Script now tries to compare against
facebook remote master branch (branch pointer is updated with any fetch
or pull), because those differences are what would be considered the
differences for a pull request.
Also, script would compare against *parent* of merge-base with that
reference point, which is just wrong since that includes the last
published commit.
In case of problems, you can now customize the reference point, by
setting the FORMAT_UPSTREAM variable.
