First time net contributor and I'm a bit confused here. When I cloned the net-next, it applied the same patch without the error as shown below:
<path of the linux tree >net-next$ ls
arch certs CREDITS Documentation fs init ipc Kconfig lib MAINTAINERS mm README samples security tools virt
block COPYING crypto drivers include io_uring Kbuild kernel LICENSES Makefile net rust scripts sound usr
<path of the linux tree/net-next$ git remote -v
origin https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git (fetch)
origin https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git (push)
<path of the linux tree/net-next$ git branch
* main
<path of the linux tree/net-next$ git am ../../patches/v3-0001-tipc-replace-deprecated-strcpy-with-strscpy-in-ti.patch
Applying: tipc: replace deprecated strcpy with strscpy in tipc_bearer_get_name()
<path of the linux tree/net-next$
May I know the correct way of getting the latest net-next so that I can reproduce the same error and patch on top of it?
