This series is a reboot of the directory rename detection series that was

This series based on top of master.

with both ds/lazy-load-trees and ps/test-chmtime-get from pu.

What's the preferred way to resolve this?  Rebase and resubmit my
series on pu, or something else?
If you were to base it off of pu, this series would depend on all other
series that pu contains. This is bad for the progress of this series.
(If it were to be merged to next, all other series would automatically
merge to next as well)

If the conflicts are minor, then Junio resolves them; if you want to be
nice, pick your merge point as

     git checkout origin/master
     git merge ds/lazy-load-trees
     git merge ps/test-chmtime-get
     git tag my-anchor

and put the series on top of that anchor.

If you do this, you'd want to be reasonably sure that
those two series are not in too much flux.

I believe ds/lazy-load-trees is queued for 'next'. I'm not surprised that there are some conflicts here. Any reference to the 'tree' member of a commit should be replaced with 'get_commit_tree(c)', or 'get_commit_tree_oid(c)' if you only care about the tree's object id.

I think Stefan's suggestion is the best approach to get the right conflicts out of the way.
