I'm about to setup my GIT trees on kernel.org, once that is complete I will be solely updating those trees again. I will notify everyone when this is ready to go. Just a heads up for everyone...

Ok, they are now online, please update your URLs. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc.git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/ide.git Thanks.

I have switched to these.

You used to have sparc-next and ide-next (and the above used to be your "current release fixes" trees) ... -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/

I've made a dummy sparc-next tree for you to pull from, thanks: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-next.git As for ide, I only plan to accept real bug fixes for that subsystem so I'll avoid creating an ide-next tree for now.

OK, I will use those trees from now on. Also, I have decided to rename them in linux-next to match your names, so: Was Now --- --- net-current net net net-next sparc-current sparc sparc sparc-next ide-curent ide and I have dropped the old ide (would be ide-next) tree. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/

I'm still new to net kernel development, so a little confused about these trees. So we should submit patches based on these trees, instead of Linus'? About net and net-next, How to decide which one to use? Thanks! Yinglin

*If* you have change against the network core/drivers then, you would want to use David Miller's net or net-next trees. As a general rule: - net tree is only for fixes/critical fixes - net-next tree is for everything else There are always exceptions, but if you stick to the above general rule, you will be fine.
