Either would work for me, but I created a synthetic base that
includes this patch and queued your last iteration on top of it,
before merging the result to 'seen' .
When you reroll, I'd reuse this synthetic base 4d7270214a (Merge
branch 'tb/t5520-reflog-expire' into dk/stash-apply-index-incore,
2026-09-28)
Thanks.
