-It's a bit early to publish another issue of this report, but a
11
-bunch of topics have graduated to 'master' and a handful of topics
12
-have joined 'next', so here is the second installment of the month.
10
+There are a few "oops, what we merged recently is broken" topics
11
+that still are not in 'master', but otherwise what we have should
12
+be pretty much what we'll have in the final one.
13
14
-About 25 topics are cooking in 'next', all of which hopefully can be
15
-in the upcoming release. Those not yet in may need bumping, but it
16
-was expected to be a slow cycle due to end-of-year holidays, so it
17
-is also OK to give them enough time to get polished into good enough
18
-shape, rather than merging them prematurely.
14
+ - I am reasonably happy with ab/refs-errno-cleanup (just one patch)
15
+ that fixes the incorrect state of the code left by the earlier
16
+ parts of the topic that have already been merged during this
17
+ cycle.
18
+
19
+ - I am also OK with ab/reftable-build-fixes (two patches), one for
20
+ general type correctness fix, the other for helping older sub-C99
21
+ compilers.
22
+
23
+If there are fixes for regressions that we introduced during this
24
+cycle other than these two topics, I certainly am missing them, so
25
+please holler loudly and quickly, hopefully in time for me to tag
26
+the -rc1 tomorrow.

- + t2501: add various tests for removing the current working directory
84
-
85
- Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a
86
- directory that becomes empty (i.e. "git switch" from a branch that
87
- has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
88
- remove all files in the directory and the directory itself). This
89
- drops users into an unfamiliar situation if the command was run in
90
- a subdirectory that becomes subject to removal due to the command.
91
- The commands have been taught to keep an empty directory if it is
92
- the directory they were started in to avoid surprising users.

143

- Make the recipe that runs msgfmt less noisy.
476
+ Because a deletion of ref would need to remove it from both the

+ loose ref store and the packed ref store, a delete-ref operation
478
