It's true what you say and I also find it annoying. That's why I use Linus tree. I cannot, though, complaint to Ralph about this practice. It seems that he has done his best to preserve the CVS history of his tree. We can only thank him for that. It is just a lot of work to trim the tree and make it Linus-parallel. There is also things that I don't know about git, so I won't jump to conclusions yet (as to whether it is feasible to merge with Linus).
