No, the rpi-3.18.y is *not* safe from rebase; in fact, it is "constantly" rebased. That's a shame. :-( As for the rpi-3.18.y-rebase branch, I have absolutely no idea what it is meant for: - is it a temporary branch that got pushed (it did not exist until a few days ago)? - is it the branch that will be rebased, leaving rpi-3.18.y alone? - something else? So, I would prefer we stick to using the rpi-3.18.y (or even the rpi-3.19.y) branch, since we pretty much know how they handle it. /me should probably go and bug the RPi guys to put some tags on their branches from time to time...
