Current status of Emacs 29

Does anyone know what the status is of Emacs 29?

I found this discussion on an Emacs 29 overlay, but it’s half a year old.

What is currently recommended for people who want Emacs 29 on NixOS with support for both Elisp native compilation and tree-sitter?

Emacs 29.1 has been merged in unstable as part of this PR. A backport to 23.05 was planned, but nobody carried that out, it seems.

Elisp native compilation is enabled since Emacs 28.1, and Emacs 28.2 is already part of the 23.05 release.

Ah nice, just the kind of answer I was hoping for :slight_smile:

I’ll tackle this tonight, because a bug on glib-networking needs to be backported too.
