Just emailing in the same thread ends up with me hopefully seeing the
"oops, cancel pull request" before I actually pull, so you did the
right thing.

To make sure, you _could_ obviously also just force-remove the tag you
asked me to pull, so that if I miss an email any pull attempt of mine
would just fail.

.., and if were to have ended up pulling before you sent the cancel
email and/or removed the tag, it's obviously all too late, and then
we'd have to fix things up after the fact, but at least this time it
got caught in time.
