To me, it looks like you merged master into your feature branch, and
then pushed it as master. That does not mean that you actually did this,
though. My best guess is that you did not merge to master using
'--no-ff', which resulted in a fast-forward merge without an explicit
merge commit. That's one of those Git "features", you know...

You don't. What's pushed is pushed. :-)
