How would I know? ;) Without the commit available I do not even know if the code there is well reasoned about.

Well fetching yesterday worked and the commit in question is from 8/23, the merge 8a044c7f1d56cef657be342e40de0795d688e882 occurred 9/18, so I suspect there is something else at play. (I do not remember having a gc between yesterday and today. Though maybe one in the background?) I am curious how you can have a worktree owned by multiple repositories [1] (?). Thanks, Stefan
