In short, I do not think there is a bug in the current behaviour.

I can live with it. Many thanks for your answer.

Do you care to copy-paste something to [1], so I could accept your answer?

I never post to that site, and it has been a long time since I even
visited there (I got an impression that nonnegliglble percentage of
accepted answers were mere crap, and I stopped visiting).

If you think it would help others, just go ahead and give them a
copy and paste with credits.  Everything I write here is Open
Source, so no need to ask for permission.

It may help them in the longer term to include

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/203689/focus=203702

to point them to where things happen and where people who matter
hang around.
