--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'. The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.
-Tagging of -rc1 is delayed, waiting for a resolution on the l10n
-issues around '"%"PRItime' custome format specifier, which naturally
-cannot be handled by gettext(1) suite nicely. I think what is queued
-on 'pu' based on Dscho's suggestion is a usable workaround, and I
-plan to use it unless I hear better ideas in the comint 10+ hours.
+With help from Jiang, Dscho and Jean-Noël, we agreed on the way to
+handle i18n issues around our custom timestamp_t type and its format
+PRItime, and tagging of -rc1 has been delayed a bit. But now it has
+happened. There is a small unrelated change still cooking somewhere
+else that may have to go in the final release, but other than that
+one, no topic is expected to go from 'next' to 'master' until the
+final. Regression fixes and reverts are possible but let's hope
+there are no need for them.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

-* ew/fd-cloexec-fix (2017-07-17) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-18 at a3de1b1998)
- + set FD_CLOEXEC properly when O_CLOEXEC is not supported
-
- Portability/fallback fix.

-* jk/build-with-asan (2017-07-17) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-18 at f92636c616)
- + Makefile: allow combining UBSan with other sanitizers
-
- A recent update made it easier to use "-fsanitize=" option while
- compiling but supported only one sanitize option. Allow more than
- one to be combined, joined with a comma, like "make SANITIZE=foo,bar".

-* jk/test-copy-bytes-fix (2017-07-17) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-18 at c32c264e96)

+* jc/po-pritime-fix (2017-07-20) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-21 at 61f0e3b37f)
+ + Makefile: help gettext tools to cope with our custom PRItime format
- A test fix.
+ We started using "%" PRItime, imitating "%" PRIuMAX and friends, as
+ a way to format the internal timestamp value, but this does not
+ play well with gettext(1) i18n framework, and causes "make pot"
+ that is run by the l10n coordinator to create a broken po/git.pot
+ file. This is a possible workaround for that problem.
-* js/alias-case-sensitivity (2017-07-17) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-18 at 31641a39f2)

- + git-p4: git-p4 tests with p4 triggers
+* rj/cygwin-fread-reads-directories (2017-07-21) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2017-07-21 at 28694cf254)
+ + config.mak.uname: set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES for cygwin
- Use "p4 -G" to make "p4 changes" output more Python-friendly
- to parse.
+ It turns out that Cygwin also needs the fopen() wrapper that
+ returns failure when a directory is opened for reading.
