Hi all,
To make my life easier, can I ask that the series file for any quilt trees in the linux-next tree have a comment at the top to identify their base (either a SHA1 or some other ref in Linus' tree). Like this:
# BASE <SHA1 or ref>
Also, if you only want a subset of the series file included, you can mark the patches with
# NEXT_PATCHES_START
.
.
# NEXT_PATCHES_END
Thanks.

Done. Right now it says:
# BASE 2.6.25-rc1-git3
Is it OK with you?

The daily snapshots are not tagged in Linus' tree, right? So I don't think
this would suffice.

Its ok, I know how to convert them to SHA1s.

Do you allow multiple START/END blocks?

Please add

My trees are now marked with this.

Oh, that's nice.
Can we write these things down somewhere on the web so that I, and
others, remember them in a few months? :)
thanks,

I can and certainly intended to. (I am still writing scripts so anything
is possible - after all it is only software :-))

Thanks, but not my idea - kudos to Alasdair Kergon.

Although this probably isn't what you were asking for, i anyway started
to put some of the basic things about linux-next together and filled a
naive little webpage with it:
http://linux.f-seidel.de/linux-next/
while the wiki there is probably most interesting as it e.g. already
contains some info about those quilt comments and is amazingly easy to
adapt and enhance.
Thanks,
Frank
