Well, I don't deserve this. I cheated.

In my personal version of git, there are a few subtle things different than in the official version. Most of them, I sent out already, and they were rejected, such as http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/10718, which helped me tremendously in identyfing the bug.

But there is also a test case in my version, which was a failure, originally. I wrote it to demonstrate that the stupid version of git-fetch was stupid. It did not demonstrate that, but rather quite a bit of (my) normal usage. That is the reason it takes a really long time for a test case, and that in turn is the reason I did not dare to submit it.

Ciao, Dscho
