There's been multiple discussions of this. The issue is that commit IDs only mean something in specific trees and go bad if someone rebases, and they aren't legibile by humans (so even if the commit is in something like Linus' tree the reader still needs a git repository to figure out what changes are being talked about). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
