iwamatsuWe only supported 4.4, but now we manage two.03:33
iwamatsuI think that the master branch doesn't make much sense to us.03:33

iwamatsuszlin: I suggest pushing the HEAD of the 4.4 or 4.19 CIP kernel to the master branch03:34
iwamatsuor pushing Linus's master.03:34
iwamatsuszlin: BTW, I dont have permisson for create new page of cip's Wiki. Who should I contact about this?03:36

szliniwamatsu: please send the request to Neal.07:42
iwamatsuszlin: I see. thank you.07:43
szliniwamatsu: got it, thanks.07:43
szlinbwh: do you have any comments on Iwamatsu's proposal? "pushing the HEAD of the 4.4 or 4.19 CIP kernel to the master branch" or "pushing Linus's master"07:46
szlinwagi: ^ :-)07:46
wagiGood morning. On which tree is our tree based?07:47
wagiIsn't it the stable tree?07:47
wagiJust a checked what gregkh is doing07:49
wagiThe master of the stable tree is following Linus' tree07:49
wagiI don't think master needs to be updated but if you want to update it, then I would just follow the origin tree's model07:51
szlinwagi: IIRC, we are using stable tree07:51
szliniwamatsu: please correct me if I'm wrong07:51
wagiIn this case I would just follow the stable tree07:51
szlinwagi: I see, that means the master branch in CIP = Linus' tree07:52
wagiI think all CIP related work should happen on branches07:52
wagiLinus -> gregkh -> cip07:53
wagiyes that makes sense07:53
szlinFair enough07:53
wagiespecially if gregkh's stable tree is our origin07:53
wagiI think most trees are organized this way07:54
wagiThat is the development happens on branches not on the master07:55
wagiMakes it simpler to pull linus/origin/master into master and then rebase the work on it07:55
wagiOkay some of the trees are based on linux-next but that is advanced stuff we don't need :)07:56

iwamatsuI agree. The master branch doesn't need to be updated, but if I do, the stable tree's master is fine.08:06
bwhszlin: Since it is usually not possible to remove the master branch on a git server, I think it is best to make it point to the latest stable branch13:05
