Dear diary, on Wed, Sep 20, 2006 at 05:28:08PM CEST, I got a letter

This is really a wrong way of describing the problem - I'd say that Git
is being difficult here. The point is, the subsystem maintainers need to
maintain stacks of patches and rebase against the main kernel branch
regularily, and they want to still publish their current state. So it's
not really any of them being strange or difficult, but Git being so
because it has no seamless support for tracking those branches.
