Please fix your pull script. There's an extraneous ":" there. Spot it?

Sorry, I should _start_ scripting it.

Also, while I see these commits in linux-next, I also see that they
have been rebased in the last day, which means that looking for them
in linux-next is actually much harder than they need to be.

In other words - WHY DID YOU REBASE? It just generates more work for
me, and adds absolutely zero value.

I always rebase m68k-queue (of which the for-{linus,next,x.y} are subsets)
to the latest tagged release, as this allows to:
  - check that m68k-queue and master are (almost) identical, to detect
    mismerges on master, and misrebases on m68k-queue,
  - clearly see which commits in m68k-queue have bubbled up to the for-*
    queues.

If you really hate this, I'll break these rules for for-linus, and
make sure it's
identical to yesterday's for-next.

I pulled it, but some of the silly details annoyed me.

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
