Maybe if you looked at who has been reporting the bugs, you'd find a different story. It's quite possible that the "inner circle" all used git in a homogeneous way, not performing every possible advertised operation, but now that git is being used by more people, older bugs are getting revealed because people really are using it out there in some nicely unique (or perhaps boneheaded :) ways.

Any quick stats on diversity of bug submitters?
