Additional FYI:

Don't be worried if git diff master..NEXT is empty from time to time.

This condition occurs whenever the 'NEXT' queue is empty.

 Could you change the Makefile to show that if we build and run this
 tree, it really isn't Linus's tree?  Yes, I know the -git number will be
 different, but that might not be very obvious to people reading bug
 reports on lkml.
 
 Just adding -next to the extraversion would be great.

A non-intrusive way to do so would be to add a file in the
top-level directory and name it localversion*.

For example:
echo '-next'  localversion-next

 The 'master' branch of libata-dev.git always contains the base commit 
 from torvalds/linux-2.6.git from which all other branches are based.  I 
 never ever commit to the 'master' branch, only update it from 
 torvalds/linux-2.6.git.
 
 
 Andrew,
 
 I will continue to maintain the 'ALL' branch exactly as before.  It may 
 contain changes not suitable for 'NEXT', but suitable for -mm testing.
 
 In my new development process, things will almost always land in 'ALL' 
 before 'NEXT'.

So does this indicate the meaning of upstream and upstream-fixes is
still the same?  I always took upstream-fixes to be bug fixes for this
-rc and upstream as queued for the next merge window, in which case NEXT
would be the union of those two sets?

In practice, #upstream-fixes isn't very useful, because I send its 
contents to Linus very very rapidly once they are committed to that 
branch.  I then locally delete that branch once Linus merges it, and 
re-create it [again, locally] the next time I have some bug fixes to apply.


So it is a somewhat throwaway branch.

The main utility of #upstream-fixes is so that I can do
git branch upstream-linus upstream-fixes
and then continue making commits in parallel with a Linus pull+push cycle.

The #upstream branch is much more useful, because that is where things 
for the next kernel are stored, during a bug-fix-only cycle.  This is 
largely equivalent to NEXT, though I plan to be more stringent in my 
requirements for NEXT commits than #upstream commits.


One thing to note is that pure rebases are somewhat rare; I much 
prefer to wait until the batch of commits lands in 
torvalds/linux-2.6.git, before I blow away and recreate (with a new 
torvalds HEAD) the branch in question.



So, to answer your question...  Fixes should go upstream fast enough 
that they should hit NEXT implicitly via a Linus pull+push.  It should 
be the union of two sets, yes, if a Linus cycle takes a long time.  When 
both #upstream and #upstream-fixes are active, I tend to always branch 
#upstream off of #upstream-fixes and/or do a git pull . upstream-fixes 
when updating #upstream.

 Please add v4l-dvb tree, at:

 The above tree has two branches: 'master' and 'stable'
 
 Both branches will have V4L/DVB next patches. The first is against your 
 master,
 and the second, against your stable.
 
 I've opted to have both trees, since probably 'stable' is the better option 
 for
 you to clone. On the other hand, 'master' allow me to foresee if an alien
 patch would conflict with a subsystem patch.

OK, this looks good (I should read ahead in my email before
replying :-)).  I will fetch the stable branch of this tree instead of
the previous tree you sent me, OK?
