Comment (by arlolra):

 Ok, confirmed that I get the same thing as you.  And yes, this is the
 result of a recent upstream change.

 I believe the problem is that `fetch --nohooks --no-history webrtc` calls
 `gclient sync` without passing a revision (`-r`), and therefore checkouts
 the head, which we then up reverting in the next step.

 Working on a fix.
