Hello everybody,

I pulled the stable-queue tree just now. This was not an inital clone,
but only an update. My previous update was end of last week I was
surprised I had to download 1,19 Gb to download.

Can somebody explain why this was so large ? This is probably the first
time I notice this. Usually, updates are much smaller.

Thanks in advance,

François Valenduc

Yes, it has gotten bigger :)

There was feedback from the testing & fuzzing MC in plumbers that the
quilt queue is difficult to work with, and is quite "unique" in the
landscape of kernel development, so I've added queue/* branches to
stable-queue which are basically regular git branches that represent
different queues.

I'll send a longer mail once few more folks finish some testing with it.
