Exact. It broke my workflow (at least) and was able to do it because the
previous git-am was permiting it. Looking closer to the code made me
understand where I was wrong.

Of course. As we was able to do more than documented, I did not see it
in first place. It's a wrong assumption coming from my initial
git-bisect, some "hidden" globbing shell, and my learning curve of the
current code.

It is _NOT_ in my intention to blame anyone.
