Correct, bug #1 is gone with current git master.

Also correct.  Bug #2 is still present with current git master.  It shows:

jgoerzen@katherina:/tmp/testrepo$ git merge master error: Entry 'files.upstream/delete.me' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge. fatal: merging of trees 5cec043802758b3a4cd617905c395a9f12bf89a2 and 9671b5181cb0649f39cfae372af1aed56a24010d failed Merge with strategy recursive failed.

Is there any other information I can provide to assist with tracking that one down?
