That does seem like either something is broken or not doing what you expect (how's that for non-informative?).

I'm not sure I have enough expertise to help further. If you care about getting to the bottom of this, then I suspect you need to help specify something that can be reproduced by others (which can be difficult).

In the meantime, if I understood your comments, you did find a way to clone the repos as you wanted just with a different command line...
