Using Gerrit allows us to comfortably rework commits until we are happy with them, without needing to rewrite any branch in coreboot.git. Gerrit acts as a buffer, where anything goes, until the commits are "submitted" into coreboot.git. //Peter -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
