Fetch from a specified branch in Sourcetree

Is it possible to have the pull button display how many commits you are behind a separate specified branch? Since fetch only seems to do this for changes the current active branch. 

Essentially I'd like to be notified when changes are made to the original source I cloned my branch from so I can pull in those changes before I try and create a pull request into that branch. 

The only alternative is to just regularly pull from the other branch into my current branch, or to right click on the branch and do a diff in the remote section. But I'd prefer an automatic solution to be visible. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hello! This is not currently available in either the mac or windows version of Sourcetree, but we appreciate the suggestion 😊
