I guess our mails crossed. I admit that I indeed wondered why you were not giving your usual "downstream shouldn't do pointless pull from upstream" briefly but focused too much on how to tweak the default without thinking through. But I wonder why "update to upstream" is merging a signed tag in the first place. Wouldn't downstream's "try to keep up with" pull be grabbing from branch tips, not tags? -- 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
