Re: [PATCH 00/23] sb/more-repo-in-api

I realized next has not been rewound, so I can resend sb/more-repo-in-api,
which I hereby do. The changes are minimal and address the only comment
by Jonathan so far.

Yeah, the only change I see matches what is in your range-diff after
applying them to my tree.

Will rewind 'next' by the end of the year and replace the topic.  Thanks.
