Yes

Sorry, here's an update.

  candidate-branches () {
    merged=$1
    dest=$2
    git for-each-ref --shell --format 'branch=%(refname) date=%(committerdate)' refs/remotes/origin | while read entry
    do
      eval "$entry"
      git merge-base --is-ancestor $branch $merged || continue
      git merge-base --is-ancestor $branch $dest && continue
      merge_point=$(git rev-list --ancestry-path --reverse $branch..$merged | head -1)
      test -n "$merge_point" || continue
      start=$(git merge-base $branch ${merge_point}~1)
      # echo Testing branch $branch merge_point $merge_point start $start
      git merge-base --is-ancestor $start $dest || continue
      echo Candidate for $dest: $branch $date
    done
  }

Yeah, that's all it was.

It's not a false positive because that branch starts exactly at v3.4.
Semantically, it does not make sense to merge to 'maint', but
topologically, it's still a candidate.

I think this can merge.

Should merge.  (Bitbucket is down so I'm not doing it now.  You're
welcome to.)

> dba0e79 doc: fix named argument in {Vec,Mat,DM}ViewFromOptions

Should merge.

I don't care whether this merges.  It changes output which is
unattractive, but it's harmless and the output is more useful.

> 54b2cd4 PCMGResidualDefault: deprecate old semi-private name and make public

NOT a candidate.  The first of three commits went to 'maint', but the
others should not.

Okay to merge.

Okay to merge, but PCDestroy_XXX should also be _clearing_ out its
composed functions.  None of them are cleared here, so it's okay that
this commit doesn't clear its.

I haven't heard about any bugs related to this, so I think it should be
merged.
