The assistant appears to be in a merge loop with at least two of my repos. It's creating thousands of merge commits without any changes. One repository that contains around 600 files that change very very rarely now has 63528 commits.

I can privately provide a copy of the git repo itself if needed.
Using the standalone build, 64bit, on ArchLinux, Fedora 20 and Ubuntu 14.04.
