I'm not sure what the git commands to do those things would be, but I can't imagine what else could be happening. I'm sure you're not doing it deliberately but it would be good if we could figure it out so that we can stop it.

Given the issues this can cause, i.e. duplicate messages like
<https://trac.macports.org/ticket/59859#comment:4> and many others,
maybe we should restrict creation of new branches in macports-ports. We
already recommend using a personal fork for development and creation of PRs.
