2.0.0 regression? request pull does not seem to find head

Looks like pull requests no longer work for me on linux. Some other trees (non-linux) work fine but I didn't yet check whether it's the local or the remote tree that's at issue.

Or maybe it's a configuration change that I missed?

Note: I have
[push]
        default = matching
configured in .gitconfig.
