Is that right? If so how can I get that tag? In each linux-next, there is a file called Next/SHA1s, and in there is a SHA1 for "origin" - that is the point in Linus' tree that I started for that day. I just use the latest available version of Linus' tree each day. > For example for next-20110928 I see in Next/quilt-import.log: For the quilt series, the owner of the series puts a BASE or NEXT_BASE comment in the series to tell me what their series is based on. I import each quilt series staring from that base into a branch and then merge that branch. For the git trees, I just fetch and merge them. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
