erofs -next tree inclusion request

erofs -next tree inclusion request

[Gao Xiang]

Hi Linux-next maintainers,

Could you kindly help add the erofs -next tree to linux-next?

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs.git dev

This can test all erofs patches with the latest linux-next tree
and make erofs better...


Thank you very much,
Gao Xiang

That seems like a good idea however since we're in the merge window and 
the only things that should be being added to -next right now are fixes
I'll hold off on doing this myself.  Stephen will be back on the 30th
(just after merge window closes), I'm sure he'll be happy to add the
tree but in case this gets lost in all the mail from the time he's been
travelling you might want to remind him after that.

If you have a separate fixes branch I'd be happy to add that right now.

Thanks for the -fixes information and detailed reminder (I didn't notice
that, sorry...)

I will do a -fix only branch later for urgent and trivial fixes.

For -next, it's okay to wait for Stephen of course :) ...

Thanks,
Gao Xiang

The fixes only -fixes branch is
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xiang/erofs.git fixes

Thanks for taking time on this stuff...

OK, thanks - I've added that for tomorrow and I'll try to remember to
add it onto the end of today's build too.  Like I said before you might
need to remind Stephen about the trees when he gets back on the 30th but
hopefully he'll see these mails.

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgement of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window.

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
     * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
        Signed-off-by,
     * posted to the relevant mailing list,
     * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
     * successfully unit tested, and
     * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

Thanks, I will keep eyes on -next branch and remind him when it's really
necessary.

Yes, I understand these rules (by keeping up with several previous rounds)
and thanks for your reminder again.

I will give a try after these commits are all solid and pull request with
my PGP key then... Thank you...

I have added this from tomorrow (sorry for the drop out today).

Which address(es) should I use as your contact address(es)?

That is ok, and thanks for your great work.

I think xiang@kernel.org is preferred since it can always redirect
to my workable email address.
