I use STGit, so perhaps I miss all that fun.  I have never had any
trouble tracking wireless-testing while keeping my patches.

You mean it's better to track wireless-next-2.6 for those of us trying
to stay on top of the wireless development?  I must have missed the
memo.  Indeed, wireless-next-2.6 has a couple of commits that
wireless-testing doesn't have yet.

I agree that having to bisect through reverts is not fun, and it takes
one or two extra iterations.
