lttng git.kernel.org tree

lttng git.kernel.org tree

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Hi Peter,

I've been posting my LTTng work through patchsets for a while, but I
start to think it would be good to deploy a LTTng tree on
git.kernel.org, do you agree ?

Also, I guess I might have to do frequent rebases to follow mainline
because the LTTng patchset touches a lot of files (including the
low-level stuff, the architecture independant and arch. specific
instrumentation and the tracer itself). My current diffstat states :

 271 files changed, 10319 insertions(+), 674 deletions(-)

in 118 patches.

Is there some documentation that describes what would be the best way to
manage such a tree ? (frequent rebases or not ?)

Thanks,

Mathieu

I would like to see that.  I do request that you have per-release
branches/tags with the lttng patches applied though.  Having that via
the patchsets has been quite nice.

Makes sense to me... if you don't have an account already, see:
