Whenever I talk about Gerrit workflow, I mean "Gerrit workflow for Android platform components, skipping kernels" ;-). There would be apparently 2 different workflows, and we need to settled main Android workflow and let kernel guys try and use Gerrit and see what's comfortable for them (starting with complete git access). We already have beginning of such setup, with John being in "Kernel Hackers" group, which allows rebases and upstream pulling for kernel/linux-android. -- Best Regards, Paul Linaro.org | Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Linaro http://twitter.com/#!/linaroorg - http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
