Because you create an incremental bundle, so all the objects in the
old bundle will
not be in the new bundle. But it can be considered the natural
behavior of bundles.

But anyway, pushing to an existing bundle is not very convenient (at
leas for me) because it forces you to keep the bundles. I think the
most convenient way would be to have remote tracking branching to
record the bases for future bundles.

For now, I will do an script that behaves like the "git bundle push"
that I described and then I'll report the pro/cons that it has.

Thank you all for the discussion, it was very fruitful.

P.D.: Am I the only one doing a bundle-only transport mode? If not,
can you comment on the different suggestions that have been said.
Thanks a lot.
