Yes, that's right. When I say "applied", it means I applied it to my local repository. I am careful not to allude to the patch being "pushed". There is no guarantee when this will happen, since it completly depends how busy the subsystem is. For Backlight, as the churn is low, the impetus for pushing is pretty low. It has been "pushed" now though. > By the way this repository has a git tag called "HEAD", which is a bit > annoying since every time I "git remote update" from here, git gets > confused until I manually delete it (git tag -d HEAD). Thanks for letting me know. I have now removed this tag. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog -- 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/
