Getting the Git repository in order is much less urgent than
putting the tarball out the door, so I asked Nicolas to do
that in this order. I don't see why this small lag is so
important. Given the nature of the problem, the priorities
were clear, I don't think they can be controversial.
I think the lag is important because it represents "attack
surface" (for FUD) to defend. Look at all the noise already
precipitated. A few seconds doing "git {commit, tag, push}"
benefits everyone interested in skipping this noise, greatly.
If those operations are not sufficient to get the repo in order,
then i suggest they be done prior to tarball publication,
anyway, but on a provisional branch. Afterwards, the proper
"getting the repo in order" operations can work w/ that branch
to merge it back to ‘master’ or whatever.
In sum: IMHO it's fine to deviate from full release protocol if
the deviation maintains transparency. When transparency is
lost, we need (annoying :-D) ml threads to find it again.
