Some of that might be mitigated by separating submitting patches and pushing patches. On the rare occasion I've pushed patches belonging to another committer if I felt it had been long enough and I needed it for another patchset. If we're ok with touching up and pushing each other's patches then reviewing all patches might go faster. Even more so if we made it a rule that you couldn't push your own patches (which I believe was suggested in 2017 and with using aegis). -- Efraim Flashner <efr...@flashner.co.il> אפרים פלשנר GPG key = A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted
