Then you'd have maybe ./devel/gen-and-kup.py -s -n -p -c -u ... or something? Overall, that seems cleaner than cluttering gentree.py with all these options, although gentree.py would probably (internally only?) have to learn about being able to take patches and the skeleton code from another directory to address the paranoia for the backport tree itself. > We just need a reasonable way to address RELMOD_UPDATE then. That's when you generate a new one for the same tag, due to updates, right? I don't really know how to handle this -- we don't really have a canonical database of what we've generated before. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe backports" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
