LeenearKeenear merged a critical fix for incorrect memmove size in LDB breakpoint deletion. This addresses an array corruption bug in Redis's Lua debugger where the memmove function was receiving the number of elements instead of bytes when shifting breakpoints in the integer array.

Selasley merged a test configuration fix for replication tests, removing an invalid repl-diskless-load configuration option. This change follows up on CVE-2026-23631 fixes and removes a Redis fork-specific option that doesn't exist in Redis OSS, cleaning up the integration test suite.

What's next: Watch for any follow-up testing on the LDB fix to ensure no regression in debugger functionality. Monitor for additional test suite cleanup as teams identify other fork-specific configurations.
