Your contributions have been felt far and wide -- from patches, to reviewing and mentorship, to setting up events, to just all around friendliness. I wish you luck and joy in whatever you decide to do next. (And selfishly, I hope you decide to come back to Git after your five month sabbatical, but wish you the best with whatever you choose to do.)

I'm slightly regretting right now waiting for ns/tmp-objdir to merge to 'next' before resubmitting en/remerge-diff rebased on top of it; it's probably too late now, but I resubmitted it anyway[1]. If you have a chance for a follow-up review before you take off, I'd appreciate it. If not, you've already improved the series significantly with your suggestions. :-)
