The posted patches do apply cleanly to the tip of 'master' as of the first batch abe6bb39 (The first batch to start the current cycle, 2021-11-29), but since then a few topics have touched Documentation/technical/multi-pack-index.txt and made the patch application fail to the tip of 'master' as of the second batch e773545c (The second batch, 2021-12-10). Even more interestingly, after merging the topic tb/cruft-packs, which does not even touch the multi-pack-index.txt file, the patches seemed to apply OK with "-3". Perhaps I should have tried "am -3" when I applied them to the 'master' with the second batch of topics. I dunno. Thanks for sanity checking.
