I didn't track down what commits exactly were pertinent to fixing
this, I just did a log from 3.21 to the master at the time and picked
all the pertinent ones.

The tests in the current master should test for the required behavior,
you can also e.g. check out Git's own git.git, run make and do cd t &&
prove t[0-9]*.sh to see if it works.

I'm on vacation now but I'd be happy to test out any patched version
around the end of the month to see if it fixes this issue.

I didn't see anything major in 3.22 though that should hold back
getting it into the next stable, and maintaining a 3.22 in Debian
instead of a patched version would probably be less painful in the
long run.
