This is Emacs 24.4.1 on Windows. I don't think I had this bug on my Linux/Emacs 25 setup, so might be a platform-specific issue. Git version is the latest "Git for Windows", 1.9.5. This happens on every repository.

I think it's more likely that this issue is limited to Emacs v24.4 than to MS Windows. But I don't have access to neither right now. Who can confirm this issue (while narrowing it down, I mean I trust the screenshot and all :-)?

I see it on Emacs 24.4, 24.5, and an Emacs 25 snapshot (May 29) on Windows (I don't currently have access to a Linux machine).

I don't see it on Linux for 24.5.

Well, color me surprised. But of course I am happy I can stick the bug window label on this instead of just bug :-) (On the other hand that makes it harder to figure out what's going on).

The problem appears to be at the end of magit-log-refresh-buffer, the margin starts out correctly filled, but then

(defun magit-log-refresh-buffer (style revs args &optional files)
...
  (save-excursion
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (magit-format-log-margin))) ; <--- huh?

It goes to the beginning of the buffer and clears the margin. I don't understand how this works correctly on Linux. Is there supposed something else on the first line?
