   Linus had an objection but I think I made a reasonable

   this is in limbo.

I just didn'̈́t really care enough. I still don't think the prefix has 
anything to do with git'ness, but at the same time it's just not something 
I'll ever use, so..

   This will be queued in 'pu'; it appears this introduces a
   timing related breakages in t75?? tests.

Can you send some more info on this?

It's a Heisenbug.  I actually merged it to 'next' but rewound it
before pushing the result out after seeing a breakage.

"make clean test" to run everything through sometimes fails and
immediately after that when I do "cd t && sh t75??-???.sh -i -v"
it happily runs through the end.

I'll be back with more details when I have some.
