The fixes can be send as pull requests to the kernel dev repo (not to the main repo). So if some wants to patch kernel, they can do so via this process. Kernel team will check this pull request and merge it with the dev repo. Once we plan on releasing a kernel patch, then we can send these fixes as pull requests to main repo [1]. When it is successfully merged, we can create a branch for that patch and do the release. > Sameera. > > > On Tue, Feb 18, 2014 at 10:41 AM, Manoj Kumara <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Since we are now maintaining Carbon 4.x kernel on Git what will be the >> best way to do the $Subject for .
