I triy to create a patchset between: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git branch rpi-3.12.y and git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git tag 3.12.26
I cloned the first tree, added the second tree as remote and fetched the tree. Then I tried commands like: git log v3.12.26..rpi-3.12.y --oneline But I get too much commits. For e.g. I get the following commit which is in both branches!: commit d8d9d6005cbfbe926bb96e5b71b99dae4fb8ddae Author: Andrey Utkin <andrey.krieger.ut...@gmail.com> Date: Mon Jul 7 23:22:50 2014 +0300 appletalk: Fix socket referencing in skb Setting just skb->sk without taking its reference and setting a destructor is invalid. However, in the places where this was done, skb is used in a way not requiring skb->sk setting. So dropping the setting of skb->sk. Thanks to Eric Dumazet <eric.duma...@gmail.com> for correct solution.

Miller <da...@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jsl...@suse.cz> I think the different commit sha1 comes from previous changes in the rpi-3.12.y tree, which then maybe creates new sha1 ids? Is there any way to find only the *real* difference between these branches? Maybe not based on commit sha1 key?
