Hi Stephen,
I am subscribed to linux-next but I did not receive [1]. If you did not CC linux-next, can you do this next time? Thanks.
Your stats have a lot of number, I am not sure if I read/interpret them correctly. Just one number is interesting for me: How many commits/patches were taken from Linux-next tree 1:1 into v3.12-rc1? Percentage of them to the total number of commits v3.11..v3.12-rc1? IOW: How successful is Linux-next?
I am irritated by the number of SHA-IDs vs. number of subject-lines. If those patches went into v3.12-rc1 from Linux-next both should be nearly the same. Can you explain that?
How many trees of maintainers/submaintainers were taken from their "for-next" trees [2]? IOW: Without any changes, special preperations "for-linus" (aka "for-v3.12-rc1")? IOW #2: How effective work maintainers :-)!
To summarize: I am interested in what went from -next to -rc1 in the last merge-window.
Thanks for clarification in advance.
Regards, - Sedat -
P.S.: While digging through the scripts-dir I found "diffconfig". For your stats I highly recommend to see which Kconfig-options are 1. new 2. changed (name or Y|M|N, especially M->Y).
