The ^ there is key, and easy not to notice. My main problem while
fixing this was trying very hard not to encounter a fencepost error.
I needed to very carefully examine the differences between the
versions to make sure I got it right, and I was starting from not
knowing how to use revert properly because I usually
reset/rebase/etc. If I had to do it again it would be faster. I hope
I don't have to do it again. :)
