Re: What's cooking in git.git (Apr 2024, #01; Mon, 1)

Hi Junio,

Thanks as always for preparing these. I have comments on the two topics
with my name on them below, but I wanted to make sure that the series at
<cover.1711387439.git.me@ttaylorr.com> is on your radar.

This is the one to move writing-related functions from 'midx.c' into a
new 'midx-write.c'.

I just sent a reroll here <cover.1712006190.git.me@ttaylorr.com>, which
is based on René's patch as well as incorporates feedback from your and
Peff's review of the first round.

Thanks updating the description. I am waiting to reroll until after it
has received a little bit of review on the technical front.

I am not sure what to do with this topic... I haven't heard from
Jonathan Tan in a while, and the same from SZEDER Gábor, who was also
reviewing it.

I personally think that the topic is in good shape and ready to go, but
I would rather get a concurring opinion from some other reviewers before
suggesting that it be merged.

Thanks,
Taylor
