There is one patch in the series, Patch 8/16 (diff: use promisor-remote.h instead of fetch-object.h), that fix the breakage, so if the series is applied on top of jt/batch-fetch-blobs-in-diff, it will apply correctly and if it is not applied on top of jt/batch-fetch-blobs-in-diff then the patch can just be dropped and everything else will apply correctly. I thought that it might be better to make the fix explicit than to rely on the rebuild machinery.
