In any case, I wouldn't have expected *that* kind of side effect for
such a simple case (that does not involve any merge commits).

If these options are fundamentally incompatible as you say, would you
agree that it makes sense to disallow their usage together (instead of
just documenting that you should know what you're doing)?

As I said already, I agreed with you before you said it, but I was
overruled.

Johannes
