This reminded me to check on the status of

    https://lore.kernel.org/git/42a8d2ef-3a67-ca2c-4334-b79975d45da7@gmail.com/ (local)

which hasn't been picked up yet. Stolee took a look and didn't have any
problems, and I think this is an important one to pick up before you cut
-rc0, since AFAICT `git multi-pack-index {expire,repack}` are broken on
platforms that do not allow move-into-place when the destination is
memory mapped.

Yeah, it is still on my rader.  I think these four extra patches
build on tb/repack-write-midx, and I was waiting for the base topic
to stabilize (it had an "oops, this thing leaks" sent only a few
days before the add-on 4-patch series was sent, IIRC).

I think the base topic has been in 'next' for about a week, so it
probably is a good time to pick it up.  Thanks for pinging.
