I have to rebase the -forge over the 2.6.x branch until the latter leaves the development phase at least. Cherry picking lots of changes manually from 2.6.x while it is under active development would be too error prone. Now that 2.6.0 is out, the number of rebases should decrease significantly, until 2.6.1 is released, at which point they should stop. You should force-pull your master branch, assuming you did not add any of your changes there, then rebase your own -forge update branch if any, onto the new master. > Thanks, > Thomas > > _______________________________________________ > Xenomai-help mailing list > Xenomai-help@domain.hid > https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-help > -- Philippe.
