That looks plausible to me, having had a quick look at the source, but keep in mind I've already spent about 45 minutes debugging this problem and figuring out how to file a bug report. I don't really have the time at the moment to learn how to build and test new versions of git, unless someone wants to walk me through it. I expect it would take rather less time for someone in the know just to do the test.
