[U-Boot] working with the Custodian's GIT

[Armando VISCONTI]

Hello everybody,

We are a team of developers that would like to post a series of patches for
the support in u-boot of a new ARM platform (SPEAr).

I have one questions regarding the GIT.

Do we really require to have a public GIT repository to publish
our work so that others can watch at it?

Or it is enough just to clone the proper  GIT repository and
submit GIT patches to the mailing list for the review?

We are beyond a company firewall, and I would prefer, if possible, to
simplify  the transaction. 
No problems to clone the GIT thru http.

Thx,
Armando

No, you do not need this. There is no such requiremnt mentioned
anywhere in the documentation that describes the patch submission
process, like http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches

This is all that's needed. Nothing else is required.

You're all set, then.
