29.0.50; Mouse wheel scroll twitches up sometimes when I scroll down |

Note: I'm using the tree-sitter branch, but the issue also appears in
the master
branch. Emacs 28.x works fine.
When I scroll down with my mouse wheel -- typically after an existing
window has changed
buffers, such as after selecting (via keyboard or mouse) an Info manual
node --
the scroll action sometimes (but not always) jerks upwards several
lines. I can then keep scrolling and it'll start scrolling down
again. This may sometimes happen after scrolling for a little while, and
sometimes not at all.
It's hard to reproduce; but the issue affects a baseline Emacs build (-Q or
-q) and only sometimes.
I had a look in the bug tracker for `scroll' and found nothing. I also
checked `M-x customize-changed' to look for likely culprits. I found
nothing that may cause this behaviour, beyond pixel scrolling, which
seems like a smoking gun to me,
but it's off by default in emacs -Q.
1. Is it possible there are changes the scrolling code that is active even
when that mode is not?
2. Could there be some sort of variable that determines scroll direction
that, somehow, gets confused?
Thanks.
Mickey.

Thanks for testing. Please be sure to report any future issues here, as
we want Emacs 29 to be released with wheel movement working everywhere,
including on odd hardware setups that I cannot test myself (my guess is
that you use a trackpad to move the pointer but a mouse wheel to scroll,
or have some integrated keyboard-trackpad device.)
With that, I'm closing this bug.
