This is the rules we agreed on. See http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/DevelopmentProcess and http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/Patches > easy to use the mailing list (which if i recall from the last time this came > up, you arent going to change). What do you mean? The size limit? We have a soft-limit of 40 k and a hard limit of 100k and a description for exceptions in http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/Patches But this doesn't save you from splitting your changes into small, orthogonal pieces. > > > so for all Blackfin patches, i'll post them and people may review them, > > > but you wont merge them until i put them into my tree for you to pull ? > > > > Correct - except that you already have those patches in some git > > repository, because otherwise you could not use git-format-patch and > > git-send-email to prepare resp. to send the patches. > > i'm not sure what you're trying to say. of course git-format-patch only > works > on patches that have been committed to a repo. I tried to answer your question - you asked "you wont merge them until i put them into my tree" and I confirmed this (as this is what a pull request from a custodian means). Your question seemed to imply that this was additional effort for you, so I tried to explain that it ain't, as you will already have such a repository ready to pull from (or rather to push into the custodia's repo from where I will pull) because you needed it to send the patches to the mailing list, and without sending patches first you cannot send a pull request. Sorry if this sounds complicated. See http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/DevelopmentProcess for details.
