It's actually my fault. Let me explain: the development of the v2 API
for the entire project (C, C++ and Python parts) happens in the
next/libgpiod-2.0 branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libgpiod/libgpiod.git I squash the
new changes into the big patch with the plan of resending it for a
final review once we agree on the interface (more or less anyway).
That will allow the repo to remain bisectable. Then we'll be able to
fine-tune different elements.

Maybe you could wait until I post v4? I'm addressing a lot of issues
in this revision. Previous small patches have already been squashed
and they concerned the core C library anyway.

There's no target, it'll be ready when it's done.
