-The tip of 'pu' is not expected to pass its own test suite, due to
16
-multiple broken topics queued near its tip. Earlier there was a talk
17
-about automatically bisecting breakage on 'pu', but tonight's
18
-pushout is a good illustration why that would not be very useful.
19
-What would be useful is (1) enumeration of commits on the first
20
-parent chain on master..pu, (2) test of the second parent of each of
21
-the commits found in (1), and (3) bisection between the broken
22
-commits in (2) and 'master', which would highlight broken topics and
23
-the commit(s) that might be responsible for each broken topic.

+Git 2.9 has been tagged. Let's wait for a few days to clean up
16
+possible fallout and then start a new cycle by rewinding the tip of
17
+'next'. I expect I'd eject a few premature topics out of 'next'
18
