That should have been fixed in 1.26, whose changelog reads:
* rework Git branch walking
avoids multiple notification about merged commits (Closes: #698133)
Joey, you said stable, which means 1.15. So upgrading seems like the
way to go.

Both are doable. I think it is better to change the module and not
skip tests.

If that works out, even better, as we wouldn't need to do anything :)
