Description

See for example https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-HBASE-Build/12922//console

git checkout 0.98
Previous HEAD position was 03d8918... HBASE-13069 Thrift Http Server returns an error code of 500 instead of 401 when authentication fails (Srikanth Srungarapu)
Switched to branch '0.98'
Your branch is behind 'origin/0.98' by 48 commits, and can be fast-forwarded.
  (use "git pull" to update your local branch)
git status
On branch 0.98
Your branch is behind 'origin/0.98' by 48 commits, and can be fast-forwarded.
  (use "git pull" to update your local branch)

Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

	patchprocess/

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

Because the local tree is 48 commits behind the head of the 0.98 branch, the contributor's patch based on the head of 0.98 branch cannot cleanly apply.
