Ie, you switched in place from master to the release branch without cleaning up first. You can't expect this to work. An older branch cannot reliably clean-up for a newer branch. Please take the emacs-announce keyword out of the subject (future announcements should use Keyword: instead to avoid this), since this whole chain is not an announcement. It's not even related to the pretest, since you built from git, not the pretest.
