Actually you don't. With the new workflow, all you need is to approve the MR in Gitlab.
I closed the MR for now. I wasn't expecting to see test failures, and even if I don't *need* to tag all the patches with a signoff, I do need to go back and make sure I am happy to sign off on each of them. This would include testing the relevant patches on FreeBSD and MacOS.
Also, I think the last two patches - using the UNIX-style `.XXX` file name prefix to denote a DOS hidden file, is a rather dubious concept, so I plan to drop these patches from the collection. Personally, I think that if we accept the concept of using `xattr` for this metadata, then DOS hidden files would be better handled with an attribute, than trying to bridge between UNIX-style hidden files and DOS-style hidden files.
@julliard do you have any comments? is there anything else you would like to see addressed here?
