Just a thought: why not name it 26.2-rc1 in these 26.2-rc1 commits (with a
26.2-rc1 tag)? Then when the final 26.2 is out, rename it to 26.2 and thus
when looking at these files you are always seeing the "latest released"
version.

Maybe that conflicts with other conventions tho, it's just an idea.
