FWIW, git request-pull is very likely to make complete mess of diffstat - all it takes is branch started at -rc1, then a merge from anything started at later point (e.g. Miklos asking to pull ->d_real() work from his tree into vfs.git, with his branch starting at -rc5). I've ended up doing git fetch origin; git checkout -b XXX origin; git merge work.misc; git diff XXX --stat and replacing the mess produced by git-request-pull with that. It works, of course, but what worries me is that less obvious mess could've slipped unnoticed. Might make sense to teach git request-pull to warn about likely bogus diffstat... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
