You won't be too far off if you thought of 'pu' branch nothing more than my bookmarks into the list archive. They are interesting enough to keep an eye on their evolution but not yet stable enough to go into initial round of wider testing and incremental development which starts to happen when they hit 'next'. So yes, while you are not yet confident that the series does not need major redesign, please keep sending replacements (not incremental updates), making it clear that you still have reservations and I'll keep them in 'pu', until the initial barrage of "Oh, I think this way is better", "The previous review comments were valuable, and this round contains all of them" is over and things seem to stabilize into a testable shape. Personally I felt your v5 and later ones were already 'next' material, and the only reason why the series haven't landed on 'next' was because you kept sending updates before I sat down in the evening and said "Ok, this looks good---let's merge it to 'next'". Instead I ended up saying "Hmph, I thought it looked good already but the author seems not satisfied yet; there is another round of update to replace the previous one. Let's queue it in 'pu', as it may be updated again, and I have to also look at series from other people.' ;-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
