It would be more readable if you rephrase the vague "has problems" with a concrete description of what the problem is. Also, drop the " (so it is ...)" part, which does not add much useful information. Your next paragraph describes how a repository can come to this state anyway. > This can happen if non-bare repository (with default 'master' branch) > is updated not via committing but by other means like push to it, or > Gerrit.

The reader has not seen anything more than "has problems" at this point, so "fixes the issue of ..." is not very helpful. You could have just said "adds tests and fixes it", if you said that the unspecified "problems" apear in "heads" and "summary" view at the beginning of the log message.
