Now Damned Lies has been updated appropriately and the master branch is
properly processed again.
Thanks to all who helped!

So I proceeded with the branching which was planned. As of today,
`gimp-help-2-10` is the branch to continue working on GIMP 2.10 series
documentation. `master` is now dedicated to GIMP 2.99/3.0 so we can start
documenting new unreleased features.
I opened a bug report to Damned Lies to ask for this new branch to also be
followed by the translation infrastructure:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/damned-lies/-/issues/239

Last point: it has been 10 days since I proposed for Jacob to be
co-maintainer on gimp-help repo. We got agreement from Mitch and Marco and
none speaking against, so I proceeded with this. Jacob is now considered a
new co-maintainer of gimp-help!
Welcome Jacob to your new role on this repository (or as you said yourself
on IRC: maybe you are doomed now! 😛).
