See the "faq" on he website, it has a graph about versioning.

In rare cases, changes get merged, (partially) unmerged and/or manually altered (*) due to discussion, which isn't completely visible in the eligible merge history. In this (tbookmark) case that has happened, and thus comparing source of the various branches is the only 100% safe way.
