Config._merge in config/loader.py, a deprecated private alias for Config.merge that was never called and never warned
@Carreau, unfortunately this change broke both Spyder and Spyder-kernels. Could you release 5.16.1 reverting it? That would give us time to address it in versions 6.1.7/3.1.6 of those packages, to be released at the end of August.
By the way, I don't remember why we're using _merge (perhaps because there was no merge at the time we wanted to merge configs), but it's been a stable API for at least 10 years.
