Case contract

Tiebreak game. points is a string of A/B point winners; target is 7 (standard) or 10 (match tiebreak). The tiebreak ends at the first point where a player has at least target points and a two-point lead; later points are ignored. first_server serves point 0, then serve alternates every two points (point k is served by first_server when ((k + 1) // 2) is even). Return [a, b, winner or None, server of the next point or None when finished, ends_change] where ends_change is true when the tiebreak is unfinished and a positive multiple of 6 points has been played.

Why this case matters

Chair-umpire scoring software must drive the server indicator and change-of-ends prompt during tiebreaks.
