Would there be a better time to send this patch? > After 1.6.2, or in a different form? I've taken your smaller patches that touched only parts that nobody is touching between 'master' and 'pu'. Please take that as a hint ;-) As a first order approximation, come up with the subset of your patch that applies cleanly to 'master', and make sure that the same patch applies cleanly to 'pu'. Remove patches to paths that have any hunk that does not apply and go back to 'master' to repeat the exercise. That will cover a lot of existing breakages in files that nobody else is working on. For example, Jay has been hyperactive around anything "remote" for the past several days. If you have clean-ups in the paths he touches in his series (still in flight), you may want to coordinate with him so that he can include your patches in the early part of his series. Or you wait until his series starts to settle down (meaning, merged to 'next'). This applies to anybody else's topic. -- 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
