The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.34.1'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:

  url = https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git
  url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
  url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
  url = https://github.com/gitster/git

Git v2.34.1 Release Notes
=========================

This release is primarily to fix a handful of regressions in Git 2.34.

Fixes since v2.34
-----------------

 * "git grep" looking in a blob that has non-UTF8 payload was
   completely broken when linked with certain versions of PCREv2
   library in the latest release.

 * "git pull" with any strategy when the other side is behind us
   should succeed as it is a no-op, but doesn't.

 * An earlier change in 2.34.0 caused JGit application (that abused
   GIT_EDITOR mechanism when invoking "git config") to get stuck with
   a SIGTTOU signal; it has been reverted.

 * An earlier change that broke .gitignore matching has been reverted.

 * SubmittingPatches document gained a syntactically incorrect mark-up,
   which has been corrected.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Changes since v2.34.0 are as follows:

Derrick Stolee (1):
      dir: revert "dir: select directories correctly"

Erwin Villejo (1):
      pull: should be noop when already-up-to-date

Junio C Hamano (3):
      Revert "grep/pcre2: fix an edge case concerning ascii patterns and UTF-8 data"
      Revert "editor: save and reset terminal after calling EDITOR"
      Git 2.34.1

Philippe Blain (1):
      SubmittingPatches: fix Asciidoc syntax in "GitHub CI" section

In an unusual situation, make reports:

GIT_VERSION = 2.34.GIT

Instead of the expected

GIT_VERSION = 2.34.1

which we see usually.

Am I missing a step that was added since 2.34.0?

Oops. I have to build off 'maint' not master. Got it.

You made me cut my lunch break short to double check, but all is
well if the release materials are good after all ;-)

Hopefully when travel is permitted and I can next get to your area, I can repair this with beer 😉

Cheers.  There is nothing to repair.  I don't drink, but thanks for
the thought.

Have fun.
