We seem to be making a good progress on the discussion on this
specific issue, but a larger tangent of this is that we do not seem
to have test coverage to catch this regression.  As we are planning
to rewrite "git pull", we need to make sure we have enough test
coverage to ensure that nothing will regress before doing so.

Thanks.
