I much prefer branches against one of Linus' release points than some point in someone elses tree - unless, of course, there are dependencies that need to be solved (which means there should be something in the pull request explaining that.) If it conflicts with something I have in my tree, then that's generally not a problem unless the conflict is horrid, at which point it can be discussed. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.5Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
