But the current roadblock is David K. cherry-picking some patches. Here
is a remaining list (not completely up to date with current master,
though not missing much) to check for possible inclusion (assuming I
have not overlooked something important pickable in the sequence
before). If you see something important here (or something not in
current master), put in a word for it.
I just realised that the error mentioned at issue 5251
(https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/5251/#f53c) is a
regression:
2.18.2 good
2.19.27 good
2.19.28 bad
2.19.83 bad
master good (and added regtest multi-measure-rest-number-threshold.ly)
Probably one of the four commits for issue 4594 (2e22eccf and ancestors)
introduced the bug.
So I’d vote for cherry-picking 253b2489, 349fb569, c7bf27ad even though
they haven’t been on your list.
3ba581df6a Issue 5490: fix for wrong clefs.varC_change
The varC clefs are a 2.19 feature. I think that new features in stable
versions should be bug-free if possible so I’d vote for cherry-picking
this too.
2afb45bd85 Issue 5489/1: improve prall glyphs
56942ccc5f Issue 5489/2: rename trilelement → trillelement
The wrong prall glyphs have annoyed me for years now and have seen them
every now and then in scores on the internet. It’s a simple fix, I don’t
expect heavy side effects (at least for 5489/1) so I’d vote for picking
this.
1284c743b0 Issue 5487/1: add very short and Henze fermatas
77b98cbbc6 Issue 5487/2: add new fermatas to Changes doc
ff348fa75a Issue 5486/1: add very short/Henze fermata commands
c9286e87ee Issue 5486/2: add fermata commands to NR
New features, don’t pick.
0f047e3514 Fix German quarter tone pitch names.
Simple fix, backwards-compatible, pick.
8d7c176b45 Issue 5511/1: add articulation support to MMRs
4424b153c0 Issue 5511/2: deprecate \fermataMarkup
Syntax change, don’t pick. Off-topic: maybe 2.22 or 2.24 can have MMRs
and rests be the same in the input language?
1272e45b49 Issue 5526 Add ly version to swing.ly
swing.ly is not part of stable/2.20 branch. IMHO swing.ly is broken and
should be postponed to 2.22, see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2019-11/msg00023.html
03f4723afc Issue 5520/1: Improvements to \ambitusAfter
2b52bc2bf1 Issue 5520/2: add \ambitusAfter to Changes
\ambitusAfter is not part of stable/2.20 so don’t pick.
17d3d3a151 Issue 4362/1: head completion uses dotted breves
49f41bf1c6 Issue 4362/2: add regtest
Simple fix, I’d consider picking it.
3300acdd8d Issue 5532/1: \ottava doesn’t confuse ambitus
04a0052411 Issue 5532/2: add regtest
Simple fix, I’d consider picking this.
2c2908c905 Issue 5563: make edges of brackets dashable
476194c706 Issue 5559/1: Add user-definable ottava markups
608aa55988 Issue 5559/2: add regtest
6f319a862d Issue 5556/3: make OttavaBracket text default boldThese should not be picked because the changes are relatively big and
neither thoroughly tested nor well documented yet.
2f1649830b Issue 5559/4: fix regression (ambitus with ottava)
However this one improves 5532/2 and might be picked.
2823ff0e87 Issue 5579: fix stem tremolo on rests crash
We don’t want crashes in stable versions, do we? ;)
