Previous ones were for net-next and in fact in the subject I indeed used: [net-next X/N] stmmac: .... After your comment I re-sent them for net.git (pls see my previous email where I clarified that). I have always posted all my patches for net-next adding its suffix in the subject. For all the patches for net.git I've never added the suffix but I'll do that. I agree with you that the suffix should be added and I had understood (and always used and fixed in my subjectprefix) that these were the format of the patches in this mailing list [PATCH] ... =>>> for net.git [PATCH net-next] =>>> for net-next.git So I'll use starting from now: [PATCH (net.git)] =>>> for net.git [PATCH (net-next)] =>>> for net-next.git > It is extremely irritating that, when I go out of my way to make > announcements here on this list, multiple times, about what kind of > patches are appropriate and what kinds are not, and yet people still > do not listen and they still submit any old crap they feel like > submitting. > > People need to stop this, now. > > Pay attention to the development state, and follow the rules, > otherwise you'll royally piss me off and I'll ignore your patches > completely. > > Thanks. > > >
