Other candidates that fix regressions:

    jk/fetch-prefetch-double-free-fix
    tb/multi-pack-reuse-dupfix
    pb/clar-build-fix
    ps/upgrade-clar
    wm/shortlog-hash

I think that we have accumulated enough topics by now to warrant a 2.47.1 release, but will of course leave that decision to you.

Thanks!
