@ritchie46 there is a `bit_slice` method in `Buffer` for this usecase, if the offset is a multiple of 8 it returns a shallow slice, otherwise a new buffer with the shifted bits is constructed. And I agree this api is really easy to miss or error prone to use and we need to somehow come up with an api that doesn't require us to constantly think about bit offsets. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
