Yes one option is to append the branch name in MAINTAINERS like this: +T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux.git next The other option is to get the branch name from linux-next, whose Next/Trees file contains this line: kvms390 git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux.git#next Then the robot knows patches should be applied to the 'next' branch. So for most trees, there is no need to specify the branch name in the MAINTAINERS file. Not only it's not necessary, but also helps avoid double configuration.
