Hi Martin,

I strongly suspect that I haven't followed the discussion on
the list closely enough, but your 'ma/unpack-trees-free-msgs'
branch in 'pu', seems to define string_list_appendf() but then
never call it. This is despite commit 40ebd6c7b0 ("string-list:
provide `string_list_appendf()`", 2018-05-20) claiming that:
'The next commit will add a user'. ;-)

Have I missed something?

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

Yes, I pushed out a tentative "how about doing it this way" update
that goes alongside his version, making some solutions (including
the function you found) he had obsoleted, yet without removing
them.  That is what you saw on 'pu'.

There is a reroll by Martin that ties all the loose ends.

Thanks for paying great attention to the details. Always
appreciated.

Ah, OK, sorry for the noise.

No worry. Thanks for pointing out the unused function to me. I
appreciate it.
