Just to make sure: The patch series, as presented here, will only build on `ubuntu-latest` by default, unless that is specifically overridden in the repository variables of `git/git`. It makes most sense to me that way.

I linked the example runs in the cover letter, which record the runtimes of the `build with cov-build` step as:

	ubuntu-latest	5m20s
	windows-latest	17m40s
	macos-latest	1m59s

But again, I don't see much sense building `git/git` for anything else than `ubuntu-latest`, at least for now.

Ciao, Johannes
