You misunderstood me. |

I meant that if you don't care about the specific number, you just make |
| 17 |
a request saying you'll take the highest free UID/GID pair at the time |
| 18 |
(that said, please try to use matching UID/GID for convenience's sake). |
| 19 |
That is, unless you want to take a specific lower number. |

|
| 21 |
Since there's no point in waiting again, just look at uid-gid.txt, find |
| 22 |
highest free UID/GID, verify that nobody else used or requested it. |
| 23 |
Then commit it, and make sure to update uid-gid.txt. |
