tag creation/import for linux-3.x.y

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Some time ago (a year or two ;) ), I've already mentioned that the tag import for newly created linux-3.x.y branches was missed.

This still happens often (e.g. the tag for 3.15 entered stable some days later) and now I see again linux-3.16.y without a 3.16 tag.

The result is that in Linux kernel git repositories which only have stable as origin linux-3.16.y currently describes itself as:

v3.16-rc7-115-g19583ca

which doesn't look like a suggested stable kernel.

I really suggest to use a script to create new linux-3.x.y branches and add the necessary tag(s) to it, even if the script would just contain 2 lines. ;)

Regards,

Alexander Holler
