What my scripts do with base-commit is look for the commit in a set of places I consider valid for where the patch is going to be applied, and just ignore whatever was provided if it's not found there (broadly, looking at the history of the tree I'm applying to plus Linus' tree). Given that it'd be useful to be able to supply a list of commit ranges that'd be considered valid. --dTy3Mrz/UPE2dbVg Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCgAdFiEEreZoqmdXGLWf4p/qJNaLcl1Uh9AFAmFXNTAACgkQJNaLcl1U h9DBcgf/eBxD+kIp7/sIYsQmTx7UbgC4Wk0cK6LzN27as8D9M9MOR5hu5IkVxik5 PK0kJjlQ39gOHqyo9j8e99EMExEQraWWlUvDFKSPUT13S7zBPUH/7MtrcF0Z/v+i TLrP1u4XGDOFpqhauf4dHLWr+tTTLTP6iJX37ePP45yPhY0vNizfsa/KJoeAw2Y2 AzYVb2/fck4/tGUfLUVfLKiGcKHcw6pJsQgPdzPzqJqWBP9otU/Z+O7o1iopWWTG pCOvO7UWuLOltKkfo9R/fUa2gVq5yXyGB7xa/isH52zGapagZwewlo31eZODmF0G beelSOZerkelpsxe+DKVi4BqujQyCA== =cPLb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --dTy3Mrz/UPE2dbVg--
