Anything merged on 2022-11-14 or 2022-11-15 is ready to go to 'master', in my opinion. I held off on integrating them into 'master' on the 18th since they hadn't been in 'next' for that long. Though I think all of those topics are pretty low risk anyway. So I would recommend merging down all of those into 'master' before cutting -rc0 next week. These are the topics I'd feel comfortable merging down before the release candidate: + pw/rebase-no-reflog-action 11-09/11-14 #2 + pw/strict-label-lookups 11-10/11-14 #2 + dd/bisect-helper-subcommand 11-11/11-14 #3 + js/remove-stale-scalar-repos 11-11/11-14 #2 + ab/coccicheck-incremental 11-11/11-14 #14 + kz/merge-tree-merge-base 11-12/11-14 #2 + ab/t7610-timeout 11-15/11-15 #2 + dd/git-bisect-builtin 11-15/11-15 #13 + rp/maintenance-qol 11-15/11-15 #4 I also feel comfortable with these (below), but they are newer topics than above. I would like to see at least ps/receive-use-only-advertised in this release, since it saw the most comprehensive review of any of these. + mh/gitcredentials-generate 11-14/11-18 #1 + jt/submodule-on-demand 11-14/11-18 #1 + ps/receive-use-only-advertised 11-17/11-18 #7 + jk/parse-object-type-mismatch 11-18/11-18 #2 These ones I am not as sure about, though Ævar (cc'd) will probably try and tell you they're ready to go ;-). + ab/cmake-nix-and-ci 11-04/11-08 #14 + ab/submodule-helper-prep-only 11-08/11-08 #9 Thanks, Taylor
