I discover from UTSL that dgit's quilt cache is keyed off not the tree
object corresponding to git HEAD, but the HEAD commit id.  (This is
necessary because the dgit view is a branchlet built on HEAD.)

But that does mean the message is misleading.  It ought to say:

   dgit:  perhaps HEAD changed since dgit build[-source] ?

(And I think, here, that we do mean HEAD and not something else.)
