Yeah, if crucial information is hidden behind internal references that's not great. And I think for that reason such stuff is a bit frowned upon. But if it helps you to keep track of the patches I don't mind. I think the usual approach though is to smash a Changeset-Id: tag onto the patch and use that to track the patch flow. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
