My reading of your summary suggests that it would be easiest to drop the
three mh/ref-api* topics from my tree, especially the 'refs: loosen
over-strict "format" check' band-aid patches, and re-queue a re-roll from
you.

OK, then, I will try to re-roll the series on top of master, and build
the equivalent of your quick-fix into the logical point in the series.

These quick-fixes were necessary _only_ because the queued topics predate
the real fix already in 1.7.8 (and I generally refuse to criss cross merge
from master to topics), so I expect you won't need their equivalents if
the topic is rebased on top of 1.7.8

... How much time to I have to work on this
while still leaving enough time to comfortably integrate it into 1.7.9?

I am hoping we can have rc0 very early next year [*1*].
