That's a feature, no bug.  Many times I found myself blessing it, since I 
was actually on the wrong branch, and only realised that when committing 
(it says "# On branch <branch>" in the text shown in the editor).

IMHO this behaviour should have become obvious to you after the tutorial.

Besides, I have to wonder if you do not check what you commit?  Because I 
usually do a "git diff" last thing before a commit to make sure that 
nothing unwanted is committed.

Hth,
