However, two things would be helpful in the future: 1) Prepend the area you are patching to your patch subjects. Aka, you put IB core: on the cover letter, but the individual patches did not have that. They should (and generally I would use IB/core:). 2) When assigning a V1/V2/V3, pass that as part of the --subject-prefix you give to git. When you use it on the cover letter, patchworks drops it entirely (patchworks does not keep cover letters, and does not transfer v1 tags from cover letters to the subsequent patches). This makes it *much* easier for me to pick out which of your patches in patchworks are the most recent. Thanks ;-) --=20 Doug Ledford GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD --r94CBN189K4pPVGt4XactdiVNE5xamJpU Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWevcEAAoJELgmozMOVy/d7OwQAL7GtRm/UtunLrgr0Wgib9bb PhJ/f6O1kiQn+n9Qlo2DfcWcSAYn2rHAtuFU1rdfVfZ18Q7ayh4OES5t5VJ4kYz+ bSUXwV+fdVpHxJUWxk2PDlniZUMNIk002ccORqJp71ctkKbq3m/mI0JtufYoKWDE i3oKiNh567Ig9uE0+nK2ioGalH7o/dNQkr7jJagdDRM0TG0abz/5LZSwFP4lPv3J UFt9Bj1lYNbYeFrnn7GSRtKF18qAAklLB9rJc0aaYt1Ibn1y6T9mHKzFtztVRiba 5BA9aBaWNt4VEq8DI8wLwtx/n0FtWW+OedbUdT6Fb3akbbbo5GF72SkSF61QHJpx bmrx8cxGMryACSJssvytgK4qhzWMoudegi2yXfXKIEg9SnYY+/841tYTCIoccBIF dLXSUcjb0MhYTx6iguhbG56DKqBMrCnR0s9/rbq2c40Vyb1gUbh4H5yhMXHCmw4h Yd0f5veemuCwhQEuCMQK9hOE1Ervlqt5xU9Vjlg0+P82C9e8kCsmM1Qyc4heM6oi xJrqJe7VMK8d80AmfwYq6JQY1noj1InbtvxVC4NLelqmHM0MAwAqt6ICU3Hutmsk odE5dIRrHDgMaPCskxOQBuvyDxa7yg6AmRJvK3kh370fl+fbA8Mtn3Qeo398fIPj DnX97ZhyjAH+s0RWm9d7 =uwHW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --r94CBN189K4pPVGt4XactdiVNE5xamJpU-- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
