What would people think of removing the kernel drivers from our svn tree? I see several reasons to do this:
- Several groups are already using their own separate repositories anyway, so svn doesn't have all of the latest and greatest anyway. (For example both ehca and ipath are really maintained in private repositories) - Pulling patches out of svn to merge with a git tree generates extra time-wasting busy-work, both for the submitter and for me. - svn kernel drivers dilute testing attention from the upstream kernel, which means that upstream is not as high-quality as possible. Getting rid of svn would encourage new features to be developed as self-contained patch sets, which makes an eventual upstream merge much easier. And of course having git as our core repository would make developing on a branch far far easier. - R. _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
