These two should be something like:

 _Q("Your branch is behind '%s' by %d commit",
    "Your branch is behind '%s' by %d commits",
    base,
    num_theirs);

Otherwise we're imposing word order in the translation.

And this is a nice example of where gettext really can't do the right thing, it only deals with messages with one numeric counter ;/

It's probably best to just pick one, probably the latter one.
