Re: [PATCH v2 00/14] Simple IPC Mechanism

The idea being that we want to be able to merge this branch as-is into Git
for Windows (and also into microsoft/git), and therefore do not want to
base it on a later commit that is not reachable from git-for-windows/git's
`main` branch.

Maybe it is time to merge `jc/macos-install-dependencies-fix` down to
`maint`? Then we could base Simple IPC/FSMonitor on `maint` instead, and
would still have the benefit we want.

Now you mention it, if we ever have an update to the current 'maint'
branch, we'd trigger this known failure in macOS build without a
good reason, even though we have a fix that has been in use on the
'master' and above.

I definitely qshould merge the jc/macos-install-dependencies-fix
topic down to 'maint' now.

Are there other topics that deserve to be in 'maint' that are
"obviously correct" people can think of?

Thanks.
