Hmm.
That branch seems to have sprouted another commit just today.
I ended up taking that too as trivial, but it shows how you seem to basically send me a pointer to a live branch. Please don't do that. When you make changes to that branch, I now get those changes that you may not have meant to send me (and that I get upset for being surprised by).
An easy solution to that is to send me a signed tag instead of a pointer to a branch. Then you can continue to update the branch, while the tag stays stable.
Plus we've been encouraging signed tags for pull requests anyway.
