For this reason, we are considering making the new wireless-testing
rebase the feeder trees for each build instead of once per cycle,
similarly to how linux-next is built.  For most users, the main
difference will behaving to remember to 'git pull --rebase' instead of
just 'git pull'.

If there are users that rely on the merging-type workflow, could you
weigh in on whether that is a strong requirement?

I'm running this in test-pilot mode now at its eventual home; comments
