I would obviously prefer more reviews.
Having said that, GitHub Desktop rolled out a new release this past Monday
with the MinGit backport I prepared with these here patches, and the only
additional report at https://github.com/desktop/desktop/issues/9597 talks
about macOS (and the MinGit backport is Windows-only). Which I take as
good news for the robustness and correctness of the fixes.
Good. My preference actually is to fast-track this down to 'master'
without the usual 'at least about a week in next' gestation period.
