That's fine if there are no interdependencies. It looks like 74df956 will be a problem though. The other two options are: - I'll add my signoff to the commits that lack it. This unbreaks the committer lacks signoff. - I remove Alex's commits, Alex sends me a pull request based on that tree, I pull it in. Alex being away for three weeks is a minor flaw in this plan. - As above, but with you sending me that tree as temporary kvm-ppc maintainer. Options 2/3 are harder as there are a few interdependencies. Linus, if the first option is acceptable, a tree is available at the same place: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git kvm-updates/3.4 otherwise, please provide guidance. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
