Is there a page/place where I can see the review comments rather neatly ?, finding out all the comments and infact reading to entire code on text file is cumbersome. If there is no way, then its fine,... I can live with it. Nope unfortunately not. That's why it's nice when people trim their e-mails ;-) > 2. When I address the review comments and want to resubmit the patch, do I need to submit the incremental patch or the entire code patch again ? git-format-patch gives me incremental patch only. Ususally you change your code and do a git commit --amend. This modifies your commit instead of creating a new one. If you already have a new commit than you can use git rebase -i <version befor commit to amend> and squash the commit's into one (git gives you a nice readme when doing rebase -i). Afterwards you do a git format-patch -1 -v 2, this creates a v2-0001-your-patch-name.patch for git send-email which has an updated [PATCH V2] in the subject. At least, the above is the way I do it (i.e. there are more than one ways to do it). -- Johannes Thumshirn Storage jthumshirn@xxxxxxx +49 911 74053 689 SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Key fingerprint = EC38 9CAB C2C4 F25D 8600 D0D0 0393 969D 2D76 0850 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
