What are you trying to achieve by > doing this ? Yes they are separate issues. That is why I started this thread. When I said "I think it is time to break up the management git tree" I was thinking along the lines that umad and mad are libraries used by tools outs= ide of OpenSM and infiniband-diags. As such I think it would be easier to maintain them as separate trees. This includes maintaining branches and versions with consistent ABI's.
