MusicBrainz Server update, 2019-09-12

It’s time for another server update! This release mostly includes small improvements to make the MusicBrainz site show data in places where it was missing and have more clear messages for the users. We have a lot of other small improvements in the pipeline which we hope to release in the next couple of updates, so if this doesn’t help with any of your pet peeves hopefully those will!

Thanks to CatQuest, chaban, danbloo, demosdemon, eey0re, ianmcorvidae, ijabz, jesus2099, Lotheric, murdos, PeterCodar, $nake, SothoTalker for having reported issues, and to every single one of you who tested the beta version and updated website localizations.

The git tag is v-2019-09-12.
