What is so surprising there? We _always_ recommend to commit before
pulling.
Well, when I modify a file, and pull afterwards: my 'modification' is
never lost (the pull might fail, though).
If we consider the removal of a file as a kind of modification, one
would expect a similar behaviour.
I do agree that this is not (nec.) a bug, still I thought it worthwhile
to bring the matter up.
In our repository we get duplicates now and then because of it.
