merge: check current wc branch for 'nothing to merge', not its p1
The working directory will usually be clean or very clean, and wc will usually
have the same branch as its parent. This change will thus usually not make any
difference and is done as a separate change to show that. It will be used in a
later change.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
