Only if you want dspbridge to be merged which as time passes it's becoming more clear that you don't. I'm not a kernel developer, but I would challenge you to find a diver that has 1000 lines of revision history in the source code. Besides, how any of this can be useful? >> - *! 24-Feb-2003 vp: Code Review Updates. Ok, what are the updates? >> - *! 18-Oct-2002 sb: Ported to Linux platform. So? >> - *! 03-Jul-2001 rr: Removed kfuncs.h because of build errors. Nice, but who cares? >> - *! 07-Dec-1999 ag: Fxn error now causes a WinCE DebugBreak; Ahh, WinCE history in a Linux driver, very useful. >> - *! 30-Aug-1999 ag: Now uses GP_printf for printf and error. Not printk? I assume this is not related to Linux then. Are we going to find an issue at some point in time that we'll say: oh crap! if only we had the revision history log we could solve it! I doubt that, the revision history is useless without the actual changes. These lines are just introducing noise. -- Felipe Contreras -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
