Subject: Update: A case where this isn't a problem
Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2019 16:10:53 +0000

Update:

Oddly, this appears not to be a problem if I use Tramp to open a file 
/scp:localhost#2222:path/to/file.txt -- this is a file on a VM (FreeBSD 
as it happens) running on localhost, and with the ssh port NATted to 
local port 2222.  In this case, file.txt can be either 
version-controlled or not.

Below, I've reverted to Tramp 2.4.1, which is the version of Tramp 
built-in to this emacs.

Relevant contents of the *Messages* buffer, with tramp-verbose set to 
10:

Just to confirm, for the other remote case, also with tramp-verbose set 
to 10...
