Subject: Re: [Ksummit-2013-discuss] When to push bug fixes to mainline
Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2013 10:20:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51E03AEE.5010403@zytor.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130712033430.GA3798@kroah.com>
On the subject of the stable tree: could we get a standard format for
requesting post-inclusion elevation of patches to stable status? It
isn't all that unusual that the need for -stable is highlighted after a
patch has been included in a maintainer's tree, and rebasing to add
stable metadata annoys Linus.
