The misc-next can rebase as I add the tags or need to remove a patch etc., so using last rc or the last pulled branch (ie. the exact commit from misc-4.20, not the head itself) should be better option for you so you don't need to catch up and rebase constantly. I can handle rebases of your branches to current misc-next as long as there are no major conflicts. > IMHO based on -rc tags should make it easier for David to rebase/apply, > but if it's causing problem like this, I could definitely go misc-* based. No, that was my fault. I review and rebase all topic branches at each rc release, but taking the branch from your repo was a bit different step in the workflow.
