The __init__ method for IPv4Network has a typo where it says all three of '192.0.2.0/24', '192.0.2.0/255.255.255.0' and '192.0.0.2/0.0.0.255' should be equal.

bpo-41482: Fix error in ipaddress.IPv4Network docstring (GH-21736)

The issue resulting in the addition of a "backport-52f9842-3.9" branch to the main python/cpython repository. I believe that this is a mistake and should be removed, but I don't know how.
When miss-islington fails to backport for reasons other than a merge conflict, the problem is likely transient -- perhaps a timing issue or temporary resource unavailable issue that we have no control over. The solution is to delete the backport label, close the label box, reopen the label box, add the label, and reclose. I did this and the auto backport was generated. (The 3.8 backport is ready to approve and merge.)

Since this is a trivial typo fix, I approved the backport for auto-merge.

I was able to delete the spurious branch because it was not protected.

Thanks, Terry. That was my fault, trying to cherry pick manually. I'm not sure why the original backport failed, and once I did the manual cherry pick as suggested I got called away for real work. As you say, I should have tried deleting the tag and re-adding it before I pulled out the cherry pick tool.
Thank you for cleaning up after me.
