Mnemosyne currently has a configuration option '(Re)learn sister cards on the same day'. However, it's very misleading in the sense that as soon as you are running out of new cards to study, Mnemosyne will bring these sister cards into the queue to prevent it from running empty. In RC1, I've added a warning message to explain that this is happening, but it's proving difficult to prevent it from triggering spuriously.
So now I'm currently leaning towards removing that configuration option altogether and taking the behaviour when this box was unchecked. This means that when learning new cards, Mnemosyne will avoid showing you sister cards, unless you are running out of new cards. I'm not sure that preventing you from trying to learn the production card when you have memorised the recognition card is all that important, and people could get confused if they see the 'not memorised' counter non-zero, but still get no new cards to study. Sure, you could give a warning message in that case, or make the behaviour configurable, but I feel that then we're just replacing one combination of a confusing, difficult to understand setting and warning message with a different combination of confusing, difficult to understand setting and warning message..
