Yep, what you have in the development repo.

No; actually I don't need the renaming at all any more, thanks to
Junio's (git(1) maintainer) suggestion to use `git am -3`, which works
even with different paths (it somehow recognizes that the files are very
similar and correctly guesses what I want to do).

With Junio's suggestion, I can cherry-pick your commits by adding your
remote to my local repo, and then run

	$ git format-patch 2024a..2024b | git am -3

from the man-pages master branch, and magically get all of your updates
in the correct files, and with their git history, which is neat.

So, my plan if you release as of 5b6a74fba1b3 ("Update some URLs") --or
around that--, it would be useful to me, because I would already import
all of your git history into the man-pages repo, and do a great merge
there.

If you don't, I'll probably drop the temporary changes that I have in my
working branches at the moment, and re-do them again after you release
2024b.

Have a lovely night!
Alex
