Subject: Tagging of -stable patches
Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:44:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121121174445.GE30250@quack.suse.cz> (raw)
Hello,
I have a question regarding tagging of patches targetted in -stable
kernels. We have this 'CC: stable@vger.kernel.org # something' tag. Now
inconvenient thing is that when I create a patch and have such tag in it,
then git-send-email will mangle the address because of the #. Now even if
git-send-email started to ignore the part after #, we don't really want
stable@vger.kernel.org to get the patch since it is eligible for -stable
only after it is merged upstream. So the CC form of the tag seems to be
kind of inconvenient. Won't it be better to have some different tag?
Honza
