I don't think there's one style that fits all subsystems/maintainers and can be recommended as general practice and I certainly do not want to maintain any such guide on a wiki. There are guides, posts and recommendations on how to contribute to linux kernel but they depend on the acutal maintainers and the preferences. This can change over time. IMO it's good to lurk for a while and observe the local habits. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
