For driver work you will often find that you can just do development against Linus' repository since it is fairly uncommon to encounter conflicting changes in the area of the code code that you are working on. Changes can be merged with or cherry picked onto one of the ALSA branches to check that they'll apply correctly before submission without having to deal with that being rebased during development. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
