I know that -next tree is doing these things daily:
1. reset HEAD to HEAD of linus's tree
2. merge about 221 subsytem trees automatically
And I know that -mm tree :
1. contains patches which are going to applied into latest Linus release
(3.x or 3.x-rcY)
2. most of the patches are included in -next (this is the original
purpose of the
-next tree - to reduce Andres Mortan's stress and make the patches
more tested)
So here comes my questions:
I found that most of the -mm patches are in -next, which means they will be
tested more by all developers , but there are still some
patches are not
included in -next tree. So why are they special and how they
make their way
into Linus 's mainline code ?
