Others (like me) will say you should have let that patch cook for a while on the mailing list or in your tree before publishing, in order to let those acks and tested-by replies come in. That's how I handle this. And I really don't buy the argument that you have to publish the change in a GIT tree to get those ACKs and tested-by replies. -- 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/
