Right. If we're serious about EDK-II being a base for real engineering collaboration, rather than just an irrelevant fig leaf while everyone *actually* ships something completely different¹, then I think we really need to be using a *distributed* version control system. It's the only sane way to permit the flow of commits from one tree to another. -- dwmw2 ¹ Which unfortunately seems to be the case even for *Intel* boards; we can't even manage to eat our own dogfood on the boards we ship ourselves :(
