First of all, thank you so much for putting so much time to look into my PR. I appriciate your research about various possible outcomes of this Patch request. I saw your mail where you listed some of the disadvantages of the current version. I also agree with the arguments you provided and it is also true that one wouldn't find any clue by seeing the output of the `CI` link you mentioned (i.e. https://github.com/git/git/runs/5312914410?check_suite_focus=true). Let's see what Junio, Ævar and others say about this. Thanks :)
