The reason that I wanted to add debugging output is that I frequently cannot 
reproduce the issue.
And we fundamentally do a terrible job reporting issues to the user (especially 
the mobile app
in several situations happily claims that it successfully synced when in fact 
it failed to sync). And
when I decided to make the Subsurface Cloud "more user friendly" we not only 
stopped reporting
errors to the user, we also stopped logging what's going on. So we don't know 
if it's authentication,
or an issue finding the right branch, or...

I was hoping someone had the time to do it yesterday - and I had thought I'd 
have plenty of free
time today, but it seems neither happened / is happening. I'm undecided if I 
want to spend the
~ 3 hours that I will have later today on creating a release, or if I delay the 
release and instead
deal with Debian packages and other nonsense that's on my todo list.

Still leaning towards getting a release out, TBH
