Laptop sync: head comparison when the integrated branch differs

Laptop sync now compares branch heads first and skips the integrated-branch fallback when the branches have not diverged

Unclear The finding does not describe what the integrated-branch path does or what you see when it is taken.

What

Laptop sync has a new check for when the integrated branch differs from your laptop's branch. It counts the commits between the two branch heads. A branch head is the latest saved change on a branch. If the laptop branch matches refs/heads/<branch> and neither side has changes the other lacks, sync no longer switches to its integrated-branch path. If the heads cannot be compared, it reports "could not compare heads".

Why

When your laptop's branch is already level with the other one, sync can carry on normally instead of taking the fallback route.
