Subject: [Consult] About linux-next branches

Hello All:

I am developing with linux-next tree which have multiple branches.

Now I use "git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git"
which is not updated within 2 weeks. But it seems other linux-next
branches continue updating.

So need I choose another linux-next tree for developing?


Welcome any members' suggestions or completions.

Thanks.

The git location is announced in each day's linux-next announcement email.
E.g. (while Stephen Rothwell is taking a break):

<quote>
I've uploaded today's linux-next tree to the master branch of the
repository below:

git://gitorious.org/thierryreding/linux-next.git

A next-20131014 tag is also provided for convenience.

Oh, it is necessary. And next, I will/should wait for him back.

OK, thanks. During these days, I will also use/reference it, although it
seems no akpm's next patches.
