If you have a pending merge request, you will need to rebase your source tree and force push so that things will cleanly merge. As we did with 5.13, we have done this again for os-build, we expect to keep it up as a cadence with every upstream release. This means we will do it again when 5.15 releases, and again with 5.16... It is difficult to manage a regularly rebased tree, because any outstanding MR is invalidated and has to also be rebased. But not doing somewhat regular rebases can also be difficult in the spirit of the openness that Fedora is based upon. While there are plenty of ways to see which patches we carry compared to upstream, some of those patches are fairly old, and would not apply cleanly at all to a modern tree after several releases were merged in with them. As we have gotten into a flow of things with merge requests, we can get to the point of very few outstanding MRs towards the end of a release cycle, and that makes it an opportune time to rebase the tree. This also means that the patches we carry should be no more than 1 release out of date, making them easier to apply to various other trees. I do realize that this is a minor inconvenience every 2-3 months, but I believe the results are worth it.
