The Fixes: tag is great (thanks James!), I have scripts that I use to track if a fix was applied to a stable tree to know if it needs to go into that branch as well. Without that, the "# 4.9" marking just doesn't work, as it doesn't tell me if that commit got backported to 4.4.y as well. I used to do that type of detection by hand, but automating it is so much better and I miss less patches that way. Anyway, just my two cents, let's try to keep this simple for both maintainers, and stable developers, if at all possible. I think what we have now works well, but if people think the documentation should be cleaned up, great, send patches :) thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Ksummit-discuss mailing list Ksummit-discuss@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ksummit-discuss
