Release 6.17.r0.g5f19a815

Not much interesting happened here since last release. The most interesting addition are the reflink patches (directory 0005-reflink), which reduce the size of Wine prefixes for users on filesystems that support reflinks. Otherwise there's just the usual bunch of added small patches and removed upstreamed patches.

Release 6.11.r1.gfd5866f6

Man, it's been a while since the last release, hasn't it?

Some of the big changes since last time are:

• The repository has undergone a major restructuring, with patchsets now being sorted into different directories depending on what they do or which part of Wine they touch. The configuration is now split into different files, and lives in the config subdirectory.
• I no longer keep the staging patchset ntdll-NtAlertThreadByThreadId enabled, since I've seen functions introduced by it in perf top.
• It is now possible to use distcc for compiling Wine, but only if ccache is also used. Just set _distcc_hosts to a list of ip addresses and _distcc_procs to the number of slots to use, before compiling normally.

And of course there are many updated and new patches! Many thanks to all the people working on Wine, Proton, and other Wine forks.
If you want to see exactly which patches were added, removed, or changed, run git diff --stat v6.5.r4.g4e2dc890..v6.11.r1.gfd5866f6 in the cloned repository.

Release 6.3-r22.g186c17f4

This release is based on Wine vanilla 6.4, but Wine Staging has not updated its version yet, so the version is still 6.3.

An exciting new addition is fastsync (aka "winesync" in the kernel, previously called "ntsync" when no name was decided).
To use it, just disable esync and fsync (it is used as the last fallback before server-side synchronization).
No big difference in performance is expected, please report back any significant deviations (in either direction)!
Many thanks to Zebediah Figura for creating fastsync.
