Given that the ubifs folks are depending on the existing branch, having duplicate commits is considered an acceptable tradeoff to not rebasing a published commit that other trees are depending on. I tell people that the ext4.git dev branch is a rewinding branch, so people shouldn't be building other trees on top of it unless they are willing to deal with the fact that it can be rebased. However, i didn't give that warning for the fscrypt branch, so I'd much rather not rewind/rebase it. - Ted -- 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
