Description
If it is possible (even if unlikely) for someone's branch to be behind, hit the 'Compare' button, and not get the **there isn’t anything to compare** message, would it helpful to include a line about what to do next in that case?
From @dtwrub : I want to say in this specific case, it's unlikely - this is in case you have already forked a repo and haven't done anything with it in a while. I guess it might be possible, if you made some changes to your repo, but didn't push them to the origin?
From @fmichonneau: If I follow correctly, I think here you'd want to add how to bring changes from upstream to your repository using the web interface. I have never done this, but I think you'd need to create a pull request using the upstream repository as the head fork and your repository as the base.
