How can I tell if a file has been updated upstream?

Is there a way for me to tell if a particular file in my repository
has an update in the upstream repository?  For example, the SHA of the
HEAD is different in the remote repository than it is of the HEAD in
the local repository.

The reason I ask is that I have a set of Python scripts that I
distribute via git (other people in the company clone my repository).
I want my script, every time it's run, to check if an update is
available, and ask the user to do "git pull".
