And then we still have to find out if that concept works at all in the FPC
context.
And yet it works flawlessly on 10,000s of other open source projects (big
and small). I simply don't know why you think FPC is so special that it
will not work here.
FPC is special in the regard that it is a compiler and that it has an
extremely high coupling between compiler and rtl units. So, changes are very
interdependent. It's hard to separate them and treat them as independent,
because they're simply not.
So ? How is the proposed flow at odds with this ?
I would think rather the opposite: by doing a MR you ensure related commits
remain together.
