Attached is a newly generated patch against the latest pull from lsm-2.5.
This applies cleanly for me, but I would like to see the specific command
you are using to apply this to the main tree.

This may be OT, but I could use some advice on the best way to generate
diffs to send to the list. My setup is as follows:
bk://lsm.bkbits.net/lsm-2.5 =clone=> lsm-2.5 =clone=> lsm-2.5-robb. I have
been using "bk treediff lsm-2.5 lsm-2.5-robb" to generate diffs. Is there
a better way?
