In particular I tend to edit and sometimes delete old patches and that seems to be quite painful with the topic branch setup (or perhaps I just haven't figured out how to do it nicely). Also tried it with guilt, but that also ran into some issues (in particular after merges one cannot manage the patches as a guilt stack anymore) What I did then was to export Len's tree to quilt, do all the touchups etc, merged some more patches and then regenerated a quilt tree for the merge request. That is how the old x86-64 tree used to work. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
