But don't sweat it - you're close enough ;) I wonder where the information got lost... I miss docs on submitting patches from git ONLY. The general documentation is pretty good and helpful, just doesn't treat git (not using git in general, but using it for submitting patches to the Linux kernel). On the other hand there's a multitude of repositories to clone times a zillion branches to follow. Which should be the basis of the patches? That's not very clear. Anyway, find them in my previous mails. Too bad I realised just after the fact that cosmetic changes should go first. Hope it's mostly OK. -- Regards, Feri. - 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/
