Hi Denys,

I noticed there is a 1.17.2 release on http://busybox.net/
but there is not matching tag in git.  Maybe you forgot to push it?
It would also be nice if there were regular announce mails for each
release, since I'm subscribed to the mailing list but I don't
check the web site regularly.

While I'm at it, a few more questions:

- the patches in http://busybox.net/downloads/fixes-1.17.2/
  don't have any comments so it's not easy to see what
  problem they fix and thus how urgent it is for me to apply them
- in git on the 1_17_stable branch all fixes are applied in
  one commit

Wouldn't it be easier to git-cherry-pick the urgent fixes
from the master branch to the stable branch (or create a new
commit if there is no matching master commit), and then
use git-format-patch to export the patches?

- busybox$ git describe
  1_12_0-2422-g5b686cb
  busybox$ git describe --tags
  1_17_0-211-g5b686cb

I'm not sure about this, but do you think it would be better
to use annotated tags like you did up to version 1.12?


Thanks
Johannes
