Hi Sebatian,
Hi Benoit,
Yes. DT patches are an endless source of merge conflicts if they are
merge throught different trees.
Usually there are small conflicts because two people added / changed a
node nearby. This patch turned the .dts file almost upside down.
Yes, that's true.
What was discussed with Olof and Arnd during Connect is that we should
avoid merging DT patches outside arm-soc tree to avoid that kind of
situation.
I am aware of this now. However these changes belonged together because
a) they belonged together and b) would break the driver until the .dts
changes and driver code is in-sync.
In future I am going to ask you for a topic branch so I can get my
changes in one piece without breaking stuff in the middle.
What do we do now?
Cannot you just merge the stable arm-soc/dt branch into your branch
before applying your patches?
Regards
Benoit
