Hi,

There are 4 branches in the staging tree

? remotes/staging/master
? remotes/staging/ralink
? remotes/staging/staging-linus
? remotes/staging/staging-next

Is the staging-linus is what Linus merges and staging-next is merged
by linux-next tree ?

No, staging-linus is what goes to Linus for this kernel release, after
the -rc1 kernel is out. ?It is picked up in the linux-next daily
releases.

staging-next is what goes to Linus for the next kernel release after
this one. ?It too is picked up in the linux-next daily releases.

ralink is an old branch of mine that I need to delete that has an
obsolete ralink driver in it that I was working on cleaning up. ?Anyone
remember what the command to delete a remote branch is? ?I always need
to look it up...

According to Google ([1]) this should be:
# git push <remote> :<remote_branch>

Thanks, that worked great.
