Your list in [4] has two fixes for issues on "master" which we should get there sooner than later. But the 3rd is just addressing a CI blind spot that we've had for at least 2 years, and since 2017 if we're talking about the default SHA-1 backend on OSX. Yes, we had some unportable code sneak in recently, but there's no reason I can see for why we'd expect that to happen tomorrow. It's been one such issue from 2017 until now, so at this rate we should expect the next one in 2027, not next week :) In any case, I figured you might want to fast-track it anyway, or whatever, which is why I crafted this series to give you easy options given your [4]. Namely (and in no particular order): A. You can queue the base topic[2] and this [1] on top of "seen" and your jc/ci-osx-with-sha1dc and they won't conflict. B. This applies directly on "master" if you peel off the first hunk. If you wanted this faster than the "doc" change it could be queued like that, and we could fix the docs later. C. You could eject your [3] and we could let this simmer at the normal rate, but that's assuming the "no rush" outlined above. D. You could proceed with your [3], and I can eventually rebase on top of it (we'll probably want to undo the nothing-to-do-with-SHA-1 change, presumably?) E. You don't need to pick this up at all at this time. Nothing's broken now that hasn't been broken for the years by us not using DC_SHA1 on OSX by default. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/patch-1.1-1f4e39be97b-20221020T225305Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-v3-0.9-00000000000-20221020T223946Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx/ 3. https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqq35bitooc.fsf@gitster.g/ 4. https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqtu3yqhm2.fsf@gitster.g/
