import [filename] with task [filename] causes both to execute TWICE?

I picked up Andrey Koleshko's Rake Task Management Essentials to start learning rake. The book covers the import statement in Chapter 1. After some tinkering, I think I figured out what he was trying to say, but noticed some differences between the behavior he describes in the book and what happens on my machine.

I've copied the relevant section below for reference, but I think the upshot is:

If you import a file, and also define a task with the same name as that file, then that task will be run before the file is imported. This feature is provided so that dependency files may be generated on-the-fly.

...The import statement may be used in any line of the Rakefile, and this doesn't apply to the loading process at all. The imported files will be loaded after the whole Rakefile is loaded. Its usage looks similar to the require statement and is shown in the following line of code:

import(filename)

Here, you are able to pass more than one file.

There is one more feature of the import method. If you pass the filenames to the import task, they are evaluated first, and this allows us to generate the dependent files on the fly. Look at the following Rakefile:

task 'dep.rb' do
  sh %Q{echo "puts 'Hello, from the dep.rb'" > dep.rb}
end

task :hello => 'dep.rb'

import 'dep.rb'

This example generates the dep.rb file on the file due to the import 'dep.rb' call that evaluates the 'dep.rb' task. The result of the hello task execution is shown as follows:

$ rake hello
echo "puts 'Hello, from the dep.rb'" > dep.rb
Hello, from the dep.rb

---

The problem is that on my machine, the aforementioned pre-import task runs twice:

# Rakefile
import 'foo.rb'

task 'foo.rb' do
  puts "I'm a little teacup,"
end

# foo.rb
puts "short and stout!"

$ rake foo.rb
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!

At first, I thought this was happening because I was explicitly calling the foo.rb task, so maybe that was running once because I called it and again in response to the import statement — but then I tried running a different task altogether:

# Rakefile
import 'foo.rb'
    
task 'foo.rb' do
  puts "I'm a little teacup,"
end

task :bar

and I get the same duplicated output as before:

$ rake bar
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!

In fact, it doesn't just spit out the same input twice; it actually runs twice, from start to finish:

# Rakefile
import 'foo.rb'
    
task 'foo.rb' do
  if !File.exist?('foo.rb')
    puts 'Where is foo.rb?'
    `echo "puts 'I\'m right here.'" > foo.rb`
  else
    puts 'Oh, I didn\'t see you there.'
    `echo "puts 'Sorry, I got held up in traffic.'" > foo.rb`
  end
end

$ rm foo.rb
$ rake foo.rb
Where is foo.rb?
I'm right here.
Oh, I didn't see you there.
Sorry, I got held up in traffic.

Is this the expected behavior, or does this constitute a bug in rake?

On a related note, the command-line flag -T is supposed to display a list of all the rake tasks that have descriptions, but when running rake -T against the above Rakefile, the import directive causes the corresponding task to run anyway:

$ rake -T
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!
I'm a little teacup,
short and stout!

Is this the expected behavior, or does this constitute a bug in rake?

FWIW I'm on Ruby 2.4.0 / Rake 12.0.0

Riproduci il comportamento usando gli esempi Rakefile e foo.rb, quindi traccia il punto di ingresso dell’importazione e il percorso del comando -T. Verifica come vengono pianificati i file importati e i task con lo stesso nome, inclusa l’elencazione dei task, e aggiungi o aggiorna i test in modo che il numero di esecuzioni previsto e il comportamento di -T siano espliciti.
