Your local branch doesn't think about the distant branch. so you need to tell git that your local branch should contrast itself with the distant (beginning/ace for this situation); To see the distinction you should utilize:
git branch --set-upstream-to origin/master
or with the short option:
git branch -u origin/master
This options --set-upstream-to (or -u in short) was introduced in git 1.8.0.
Once you have set this option; git status will show you something like:
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
