Assuming current Thierry's branches > are bisectable, how Linus' tree can be broken after specific pull order? Yeah, I don't see how there could be issues. The for-5.14/soc does have all the dependencies that it needs, as far as I can tell, as does the for-5.14/memory branch. If for-5.14/soc gets pulled first, then the sub-branch that's included in for-5.14/memory will end up in ARM SoC before for-5.14/memory, but that should be harmless. Once for-5.14/memory is then pulled in, it'll pull in all the dependencies with it, except that part of them will be there already from for-5.14/soc. The only way this could break is if either the original series wasn't bisectible, or if some of the later SoC patches rely on patches from the memory portion of that, which rely on the earlier SoC patches. That'd be a very odd circular dependency and would add to the complexity on how to handle this. But given that all these branches seem to be building fine, I don't think that's the case. If something like that ever happens within a series, please make sure to point that out. In general a good way to manage such circular dependencies is to post subseries separately and make a note of the dependencies in the cover letter to make that clearer. That's also why it's usually a good idea to send series such that the patches within are ordered by tree. That way it's trivial to find out if there are any such circular dependencies by doing a bisectibility build on the branch. Thierry
