rsync - Oct 2024 - How to actually get patches accepted? ATTN maintainers

Hi,

This is mostly intended for the maintainers to read.

What's intended way to actually get patches merged into rsync?

I've tried:
- Mailing list posts
- GitHub PRs

--ignore-non-existing-directory
https://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2015-November/030455.html
https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync-patches/issues/8
https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/pull/595

TCP options:
https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/pull/514
https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync-patches/issues/9

I didn't use the Samba bugzilla, because it seems dead (For 2024, the
entire rsync product has 4 bugs that changed).
