I personally consider the series to be ready for 'next'. There are no outstanding review comments that need to be addressed, and reviews of v1 were favorable. I don't think we need to wait for additional reviews on v2 of the series given that it really only improved commit messages and adapted a test.

In case you feel uncomfortable with the lack of more reviews I can try to get some additional eyes onto this patch series though.
