Yes. Occasionally we accidentally break this, as you note, and then
git bisection across that kind of boundary requires a painful build
from clean. But almost always bisection (across small spans of history)
works without having to do that, as do things like "check out this
branch I was working on a month ago and do a build without bothering
to clean first".
In this case you broke my standard workflow for rolling back from
an attempted merge that didn't actually build, which IME is a pretty
rare thing to have go wrong.
