Where did you get this text from? It is nowhere to be found in
https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/NEWS.html.

The items are in the NEWS file, but I paraphrased poorly and grouped them incorrectly:

- The poll()/errno fix is from 20260411:
https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/NEWS.html#t20260411
- The _nc_write_object, _nc_trim_sgr0, and read_SGR fixes are from 20260418 (credited to Anthropic):
https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/NEWS.html#t20260418
- The _nc_mouse_parse fix and konsole-direct/mintty/linux-alt1049 are from 20260404:
https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/NEWS.html#t20260404

I also got the _nc_trim_sgr0 description wrong -- it was a source-pointer correction, not a limit-check.

Also, you're updating from 20251231 to 20260425, there have been multiple releases, so surely the changelog is longer than that.

Yes, there are 17 intermediate snapshots (20260103 through 20260425) and the commit message only covered 2-3 of them. That was a mistake.

If you're using AI to generate those patches and their commit logs, stop immediately. We don't have the time to review AI slop.

Understood. I will send a v2 with a proper commit message covering all intermediate snapshots, written from the upstream NEWS file.

Regards,
Shubham
