I was also bugged by that. I imagine that the meta variables foo and bar are at fault here, and that probably the actual package names had a common suffix like firstPkg and secondPkg. A common suffix of length three is enough in this case to get 16 chars in common as "/CHANGELOG.md" is already 13 chars long.
