Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] docs/process: branching-checklist: Reword the section about Config.mk
Date: Thu,  9 Feb 2023 17:28:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230209172820.56292-2-julien@xen.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230209172820.56292-1-julien@xen.org>

From: Julien Grall <jgrall@amazon.com>

Since at least Xen 4.12, the revision for external trees don't contain
the word "unstable". So explicitely list the *_REVISION variables that
need to be updated as part of the branching process.
