/me drops LKML from CC, as this is linux-next specific Hi!

The real reason why I write this mail is this: Is it possible somehow to export the individual patches that are currently in linux-next? I tried git format-patch -M -o ../tmp 'origin/stable..origin/HEAD^' but that resulted in 3269 files with commits/patches that sum up to 38 MByte. Some of those patches (seems 1919 alone from the KVM tree...) are quite old. The first one for example is 0001-KVM-mmu-add-missing-dirty-page-tracking-cases.patch : """ > From 2959cd13ecc1fbe1b2339937481844ff963f1e7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 > From: Avi Kivity <avi@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Mon, 19 Feb 2007 14:37:46 +0200 > Subject: [PATCH 0001/3269] KVM: mmu: add missing dirty page tracking cases > > We fail to mark a page dirty in three cases: > > - setting the accessed bit in a pte > - setting the dirty bit in a pte > - emulating a write into a pagetable > > This fix adds the missing cases. > [...] """ It afaics was merged in linus tree ages ago: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bf3f8e86c2e22b9bd1375be1bbbd67384dba4342 I suspect I do something wrong, but I could not find what exactly what I'm doing wrong... Could anybody give me some insight/help? tia!
