Comment:

 In [changeset:"36319"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="36319"
 Posts: Add a `$post` parameter to `get_the_excerpt()`.

 This allows getting the excerpt for a specific post, similar to how most
 other template tags work.
 A deprecation notice is thrown if a boolean value is passed, which is
 deprecated since 2.3 and has not been used for a long time.
 Adds unit tests.

 Fixes #27246.
