Oh, this is a good point. To restate it: your "git pull" is probably  
just fetching new commits from the master branch of your fork of Rails  
on GitHub, but there won't be any new commits there. You either need  
to update your fork's master branch to contain the upstream commits  
from the main Rails repository (and then git pull will transfer those  
to your local master branch) or, better, add the Rails repo as another  
remote as Tom suggests and fetch commits directly from there before  
you rebase.
