For 4.6 I used pull request with a signed tag and everything went quite well. For 4.7 I did re-read the whole development process documentation but it only speaks about pull requests and does not clearly state what you just stated. To summarize I screwed this one up but I guess the only big harm is that vTPM support will skip to 4.8. I guess not big harm done? My master is now rebased and this is what I get: $ git log --oneline security/next...master | wc -l 67 I don't think that is too bad. > Jason /Jarkko
