Hi Matthew,
Why have you just rebased the drivers-x86 tree
(git://cavan.codon.org.uk/platform-drivers-x86.git#linux-next)? You have
just invalidated your testing and made it likely that Linus will blast
you if you ask him to pull your tree. Your whole tree was already based
after v3.10 (i.e. released or rebased after the merge window opened), so
why move it again?

Cheers,

That is hardly a reason to rebase your tree. Just add another commit to correct the situation. The tree as it stood would not have affected anyone's building, running or bisecting. And why do I now have three versions of your tree? The one in linux-next on Friday, the one in linux-next today, and the one you asked Linus to pull. I hope you don't have any developers trying to develop stuff based on your tree :-( And yes, this is a rhetorical question, just trying to get you to think about your process. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au [-- Attachment #2: Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 836 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I verified that the only difference before and after rebasing was that the file permission was back the way it should be. Why clutter history? -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@srcf.ucam.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
