Following git tradition, manpage came after the command's behaviour has
been long established.  It will be a behaviour change, and it is open to
debate if the new behaviour is better or if the proposed change of
behaviour hurts existing users.
If my opinion counts, I like the current ("prepend") one,...
Well, I do not think you are alone --- otherwise the original behaviour
would not be such ;-)

In any case, what is more important is that the proposed change is a
change in behaviour and the burden of proof that it does not hurt people's
existing scripts is on the party that wants to change it.
