Thanks for the hint.

Just to be sure, perhaps I missed the docs, what would be needed in

https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/repo-metadata/-/blob/master/projects-invent/utilities/kate/i18n.json?ref_type=heads

Now we have:

{"trunk": "none", "stable": "none", "stable_kf5": "release/23.08", 
"trunk_kf5": "master"}

Would it be something like:

{"trunk": "master", "stable": "none", "stable_kf5": "release/23.08", 
"trunk_kf5": "none"}
