i /might/ have gotten it fixed. will have to confirm when can.
takes me time to do things so i have drafts, but it sounds like this
by max is a shortened version, so i tried it:
vvv
I have not tested the following commands
git remote set-url origin
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs/org-mode.git
git branch --set-upstream-to=bugfix local
git fetch
^^^
i assume that this is an untested script for doing what i want. the
fact that it is turnkey is a huge boon because my cognition and
ability to use computers lmited and have consequences. looks a bit
like a yes to my op q viz. can i do this?
i greatly appreciate the help from all contributors in addition, even
if not understand all of it or can't do parts.
the upgrade to recent org might be needed for any fix to the needed
org-capture extension so if this works it is good.
so what i did was run those 3 commands [one does not work] and edit
config manually and pull. here is a transcript plus my complete
config. i will have to reproduce using my shell pull so i can get the
diff. cannot do now but cp etc.
i find editing the config manually more straightforward than running a
command to edit it.
i THINK this worked. i had to figure out a trivial guess at what to
do to fix maint branch. on clean local branch. transcript:

notice that it rebased my patches all by itself. [at least this
time.] not sure if dangerous my case; wfm; i do not push. i do not
get what gets dangerously rewritten. my patches get merge conflicts.
org patches are presumably not rewritten.
merge conflicts instill rational fear but that is not avoidable here.
and did not even occur for such a huge upgrade.
uf you are curious about my patches please ask. some are mere guesses
at locations to do things that i am ot capable of. some are ueful
tiny changes. not fsf signed. have contributed tinychanes.
