PS: I'm planning on pushing all of my patches that I've labelled as upstream friendly & ready to merge over the next period. I'm wondering however if perhaps doing a import of cvs to git, apply my patches to my branch and make available (be it the repo itself, or patches generated with 'git format-patch') might just be a more convenient way to make things a bit less messy and more convenient for you to review..
I have almost 200 patches maintained locally, roughly 1/3 of those patches are bug fixes (not distro specific in most cases IIRC) which I think should be pretty much obvious enough by themself without any mess for most cases. Beyond these, I have some various new features and enhancements that's spread apart way too many patches for them to be anything else than scary to others, I intend to clean up these and hopefully get around to write some regression tests, I'm thinking that having my own git repo checked out from cvs might be even more convenient for these.. WDYT? I'm eager to rid myself of the far too many patches I've maintained locally and I really think a significant part of these might just be of some nice value to others as well. :) Lemme know what way you'd prefer for me to contribute them, I at figure that I should at least not just start spamming this list with each and everyone of them at once.. :o) -- Regards, Per Øyvind > > Yes I know auite well what I intended when I did the implementation. > > 73 de Jeff > >
