As I say, it does work for me because I always rebase MFD patches on-top of the immutable branches. What time trying to say is that, some Maintainers treat their master branches as stable once they get pushed, so this style of "pull this and apply it as a base for patches already in your tree" pull-request will not work for some. > Really, that does not differ from all your stable immutable branches you > have been providing for other folks. No, this is different. When I create a pull-request it always contains *all* of the dependencies, so it can be pulled in before or after any other patches. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
