Many of the internal scripts for managing this are very intertwined with ptools. The one thing that will really help with handling externally contributed patches is for the primary internal SGI dev tree to become GIT based. But not having git->ptools auto merge is not an option. PCP is in the same boat, just ask Nathan :) Looking at this next week ... Cheers -- Mark
