Hallo

this rc1 runs here (pure Intel-box) without errors.
Thanks !


An RPC (I'm thinking about since some month)
======

Wouldn't it be better (and not so much add. work) to sort the
Pseudo-Shortlog towards subsystem/driver ?

something like this:

...
usb: gadget: f_ncm: allow using NCM in SuperSpeed Plus gadgets.
usb: cdns3: gadget: free interrupt after gadget has deleted

    Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@xxxxxxxxxx>
    Peter Chen <peter.chen@xxxxxxx>
...


Think of searching a bugfix in the shortlog.

With the current layout I need to read/"visual grep" the whole log.

With the new layout I'm able to jump to the "buggy" subsystem/driver and
only need to read that part of the log to get the info if the bug is
fixed or not yet

Do you have an example script that generates such a thing?  If so, I'll
be glad to look into it, but am not going to try to create it on my own,
sorry.

thanks,

greg k-h


first of all: in the above mail it should read "RFC"


Surely, who get the most benefit of it (the layout) does the most work.
Agreed, I will see what I can do -I'm unsure -

Currently, I'm thinking that the data for your shortlog are coming from
a sort of an git query or so and it would just be an easy adjustment of
the query parameter.

This seems not to be the case ?

To get an idea if my knowledge is sufficing (I'm no developer):

Where do you get the data from to generate your shortlog ?
