If you believe that it is a foregone conclusion that that is the fate of all bug trackers, and that that's a reasonable reason for git not to have one, then you have had very different experiences to me. I don't think there's more I can say than that. > >> This is another reminder to fix this bug which is otherwise untrackable. > > Let's imagine you are posting this to bugzilla: first question? > How do you reproduce this?

Other git developers confirmed it's probably an issue. Isn't that enough? http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/29534/focus=165326 Anyway, we've had a work around in place since January. From the git POV, this just falls through the cracks. Consider the bug marked as can not reproduce/needs info/whatever you prefer. I'm outie. Steve.
