Run:

    $ git log --first-parent --oneline origin/master..origin/pu

and find "Merge branch 'rr/remote-helper-doc'" in the output. The second parent of that merge commit (e.g. 6144af5^2 == ad466d1) is the tip of your topic. You can verify it with:

    $ git log -p origin/master..ad466d1
    $ git checkout -b remote-helper-doc ad466d1
    ... build further on it ...
