I think we should update the git tree entry as well, as we're using
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/linux-media/users/uvc/. As that's
temporary until we can merge patches directly in the multi-committers
tree, it may however not be worth it. What do you think ?

Merged, thanks!

The official tree is now at:

	git://linuxtv.org/media.git

Such tree is not expected to be rebased, so IMO the best is to point
to it. I just submitted a patch mass-updating the references to
media_tree.git to it. Such patch has to be backported, as even
stable versions should be pointing to an existing tree (and we may
soon get rid of the media_tree.git and media_stage.git trees).

Assuming that we have a smooth process, I don't expect that patches
at the uvc merge tree to be there for a long time. Also, this is
meant to be a short-lived tree with the migration to media-committers
(which is a tree that can be rebased).

So, IMO, it is not worth pointing to the uvc merge tree.

Thanks,
Mauro

The migration to the multi-committers tree is the main reason why I
don't think it's worth it to point to
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/linux-media/users/uvc/, assuming we start
using the multi-committers model very soon. Once done, the git tree
entry should point to that tree.
