The end-to-end diff is significant because it's not the full patch series. Give me pointers to the two branches and I'll get you a patch series on top of Ævar's that gets you *exactly* zero end-to-end diff to Emily's series. There's many paths to end up with exactly the same code.

The Git project doesn't have deadlines. Code should be merged when it's ready to be merged, not when it's convenient for $company. I have patches that have been stuck for 7 years. Why should $company get a fast-path, an exception, or preferential treatment? Cheers. -- Felipe Contreras
