Hi Warner,
thank you very much for the update.
If I understand this correctly, the way to go in the future is a 1:1
merge from openzfs/master to e.g. vendor/openzfs/master and from
openzfs/zfs-2.1-release to vendor/openzfs/zfs-2.1-release? And as a
second step a subtree merge from vendor/openzfs/* to main or stable/13?
