August 2026 stabilization week

  Hi FreeBSD/main users & developers:

This is an automated email to inform you that the August 2026 stabilization week
started with FreeBSD/main at main-n288532-74019bc3ea91, which was tagged as
main-stabweek-2026-Aug.

Those who want to participate in the stabilization week are encouraged to
update to the above revision/tag and test their systems.

The tag main-stabweek-2026-Aug has been published at Gleb Smirnoff's github repo.
To connect this repo as an additional remote you need to run:

  git remote add glebius https://github.com/glebius/FreeBSD

Once remote is configured, to checkout the tag run:

  git fetch glebius --tags
  git checkout main-stabweek-2026-Aug

If you want to use only the official FreeBSD repo, then update to
the revision:

  git pull
  git checkout 74019bc3ea91

Developers are encouraged to avoid pushing new features to FreeBSD/main during
the stabilization week, but focus on bugfixes instead.  The stabilization week
runs up to Friday 18:00 UTC, but if there is consensus that any regressions
discovered by participants have been fixed, it will end early.

Once that happens, the advisory freeze of FreeBSD/main branch is thawed.
