I wish I had the courage and the time to go through my old big patch and extract the things that are still relevant today. I had asked at that time to this list if someone knew a patch splitter GUI, that would enable to split a patch into several (sub)patches by graphically selecting which changes would go to each (sub)patch. Maybe there has been some progress on this, or some new well-informed readers?
I'm not aware of such a thing, but what works pretty well for me is to use stgit and selectively pull chunks to patches earlier in the series and merge the top again. So its something like: - do lots of changes, commit on top of stack - open in editor, pop patch - create new patch, copy stuff from open editor - commit - go to top of stack again, merge - repeat from step 2 until patch at top is empty Its works quite fast since the merging goes really painlessly. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
