Re: Dividing up a large merge.

And, if you believe your release cycle is going to run for more than,
say, 2-3 months, I suggest that you keep things in a single linear
patch stream.  You can keep the patch series under git control, and
then rebase periodically; I'd suggest rebasing once a mainline release
happens (i.e., when 2.6.X is released), and then again after most of
the major changes have been merged in and the tree has settled down
(i.e., after 2.6.X-rc2 or 2.6.X-rc3).
