All changes of this kind, including this one, should be carefully
described in the release notes. Since you say you are effectively a Git
packager, you really should be one of the persons who do actually read
them. :-)

You can't ask us to stop making any incompatible changes - Git is still
too young for that and it's UI got evolved, not designed. But we do
document the changes we do, even though we might do a better job
*spreading* the word.
