[$] The second half of the 5.13 merge window
By the time the last pull request was acted on and 5.13-rc1was released, a total of 14,231 non-merge commits had found their way intothe mainline. That makes the 5.13 merge window larger than the entire 5.12development cycle (13,015 commits) and just short of all of 5.11 (14,340).In other words, 5.13 looks like one of the busier development cycles wehave seen for a little while.About 6,400 of these commits came in after thefirst-half summary was written, and they include a number ofsignificant new features.
