I think the trouble here is that the-bundle-5.bundle does not necessarily contain the basis. Consider the general case of pushing master, next, pu, and only pu has updated since the last push. Now, the-bundle-6.bundle will only contain pu, not master nor next as there is nothing new, and thus is not a good basis for creating the-bundle-7.bundle. This leads to a need for a meta-storage of basis or a redefinition of how git-bundle deals with refs that are equal to the given basis (currently, it excludes such refs).
