As we have "oops, what was already added to 'master' is not quite right" fixes for a few topics, I'd feel uneasy to release 2.2 final without a -rc3. I was hoping that we can tag the final end of this week, but let's make a -rc3 tomorrow or Friday and then do the final one mid next week just before Turkey.

The ones I have in mind that I'd like to add for -rc3 are
 - Christian's trailers fixes (two patches)
 - David's "difftool --trust-exit-code" fix (one patch)
 - Torsten's fix to test t5705 (one patch)
and smaller documentation fixes (which are not regression fixes).

Other things in 'next', even though many of them feel solid, are new features that can wait for another cycle, I think.

Thanks.
