I'm stuck in kind of a no-win situation with this, then.  It's not
really appropriate to log a bug in an issue tracker without knowing it's
a bug, but nobody will tell me if it's a bug, how I should judge whether
it's a bug, or whatever else applies here.  I'm not even sure yet that
what I believe to be expected behavior is expected behavior, or whether
I'm just using it wrong.

. . . so while I wait to see if someone will give me some guidance, it
will fall off everyone's radar, and nothing will be done, so that my
only option going forward for some of these projects will be to just use
Git.
