Latest staging stuff

Latest staging stuff

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

Greg,

Where do I get stuff to send patches against your latest staging? I
thought it would be your staging git tree:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git

But this doesn't seem to have the latest. I actually see more later stuff on:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/staging/

What is the difference between what you maintain in these? I take it
there is no actual git tree that is not just a directory with patches
for staging huh? It seems I would have to apply all the patches in
gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/staging/ and then send stuff against it.

Yes, that is correct.

The old staging.git tree is obsolete, I need to go delete the thing,
sorry about that.

Yes, that is exactly the thing to do.

Or, you can grab the linux-next tree and send me patches against that,
as it includes my staging patch set inside of it and it is resynced
every night.

So, if you like git, you might want to stick with linux-next and use
that to send me staging patches.

Hope this helps,
