+On a positive note I can confirm that my compiled versions of commits 54ad1b4cf and 398633c12
+pass their test suite even in a subdirectory some 64 characters deep (for instance in a directory
+named like `c:/Users/jkniiv/annx/annx.10.20230228-g505f1a654--test-test-test`) whereas the commit
+just prior to \"Windows: Support long filenames in more (possibly all) of the code\" (54ad1b4cf), or
+505f1a654, fails some one third to one half of its tests in said directory. Shortening the test
+directory name to say `c:/Users/jkniiv/annx/annx` allows the test suite to pass in older versions
+of git-annex all other things considered equal. So far I have been running the built-in tests
+always in 'c:/annx' (/c/annx in Git Bash) but here on forward I'll probably start using a deeper
+path somewhere in my user folder / home directory just to catch possible future regressions in long
+path handling. In any case, @Joey, congratulations 🎉 are in order for your fine achievement from
+a Windows user point of view. :)
