For the record, I have not forgotten about v2.51. There's just... developments.

First of all, we identified some mistakes I made during the -rc1 rebase, and I wanted to make extra sure that we had found and fixed all of those.

But there is a bigger issue unfolding: There has been a change in upstream Git v2.51 that frequently leads to bogus .lock file issues when cloning/fetching onto a case-insensitive filesystem when some refs differ only in lower-/upper-case letters (which is unfortunately all too common). I am monitoring the development of fixes for this issue and will update this here discussion once I have a better grasp on the likely timeline.
