My understanding is that commits [1] and [3] above are automatically
safe and I may backport them, and that backporting commit [2] is
unlikely to receive your blessing.
But I would like to ask for it nonetheless, since commit [2] is an
obvious fix™ for a regression in 26.1:
[4: a9973a3c16]: Extend 'indent-relative' when its arg is non-nil
2016-11-18 11:02:55 +0200
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=a9973a3c164060bde08a717b46023a3bf68909c8
I do, of course, understand I may have missed that ship.
Thanks for clarifying,
