It is not clear for me. Yes, I have to get some fixed version to reproduce
the bug reported by someone. Then I need to fix it and commit the change 
back (on the head). Also, it is obvious to reproduce the issue and 
test the fix on the tip. Can do this with 'git archive'?
BTW, doesn't 'git archive' sync to some version that I probably already 
have in other clone? ;-)
