I did just update on my v0.5 package directory (i also run 0.4 and 0.6dev in parallel) and got reported this (at the end of Pkg.update):
...

INFO: Computing changes...

=> Package Iplot cannot be updated.

which might be related to:
lobi@orange4:~/.julia/v0.5/Iplot$ git status
On branch master
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
(use "git push" to publish your local commits)
nothing to commit, working directory clean
lobi@orange4:~/.julia/v0.5/Iplot$ git remote -v
origin /home/lobi/.julia/v0.5/Iplot/../../v0.4/Iplot/ (fetch)
origin /home/lobi/.julia/v0.5/Iplot/../../v0.4/Iplot/ (push)
lobi@orange4:~/.julia/v0.5/Iplot$
so a dirty package and git remote via filesystem.
Is this not allowed anymore?
