Recently the kernel version on the github
repository did not match up with the master branch of

https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux

Specifically, github was hosting v4.10-rc5 while master had
v4.10-rc8. All the while Linus' mainline was at v4.11-rc1.

Was this an anomaly or is there a technical reason please? While
writing this I see that perhaps I should have checked the other
branches (fixes, next, test).

thanks,
Tobin.
