Ouch, that looks like we are losing all history. One large patch should not be submitted. If it was developed in steps, then it is best to show those steps when they are incorporated into the Linux repository. Sure, the patches may be reworked and folded together where appropriate, but when I read "this single large patch is like a snapshot of a git tree", that right there is a red flag. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
