The breakage is due to a semantic conflict between the two, which is
solved thusly:

Junio: I don't think this warrants kicking out the cmake topic. This
sort of problem is just going to occur while something like that is
in-flight, or Alison would have otherwise presumably seen it as a CI
failure if based off "master".

With hindsight I could have made e74e51a9154 (cmake & test-lib.sh: add a
$GIT_SOURCE_DIR variable, 2022-11-03) do the migration in two phases,
but I didn't expect another topic to rely on the relatively obscure bits
that were being copied to the $GIT_BUILD_DIR, we weren't exactly
drowning in git-completion.bash patches...
