Will do. Also, it would be really nice if you could send patches as Doc/net/netdev-FAQ.txt suggests, as lots of us have scripts that parse the subject to find out which tree to apply/test the patches. It's also easier than using git notes edit/git send-email --notes :). Q: How do I indicate which tree (net vs. net-next) my patch should be in? A: Firstly, think whether you have a bug fix or new "next-like" content. Then once decided, assuming that you use git, use the prefix flag, i.e. git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net-next' start..finish Use "net" instead of "net-next" (always lower case) in the above for bug-fix net content. If you don't use git, then note the only magic in the above is just the subject text of the outgoing e-mail, and you can manually change it yourself with whatever MUA you are comfortable with. > >Thanks. > >Tom >-- >To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in >the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org >More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
