That's right. It's not okay to break this branch up. If it was, we would have been able to apply our respective components into our own trees from the beginning, but as there are interdependencies, breaking up the branch could have nasty consequences depending on the order in which they land in Mainline. Most likely bisectability will be broken, which is not allowed. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
