Greg,
When I looked again at the removal of rt2860sta from staging, it was quickly
obvious that unless rt2870sta was also removed, very little of the code could be
removed. As I have no experience with rt2800usb, the mainline driver for that
device, I went to the wireless mailing list with the question. There was one
objection to the removal, but the maintainers were in favor, thus I will be
submitting a patch to delete both drivers.
I did the changes on my local git tree, committed them, and used 'git
format-patch'. I expected that 'git rm' statements would be used to delete the
files, but I got normal patch format. As a result, the resulting patch is over
2.4 GB, and has over 75,000 lines. Obviously, I'm reluctant to dump a patch of
this size on the lists. Is there a way to force git to use "rm" statements, or
is there some way to handle this large patch?
Thanks,
Larry
