    if you think it's normal the thing sounds very messy. I mean, how can
    a changeset be numbered 1.879.43.1 and not be included in 2.5.59?

    The way I understood it is that when Linus merges "stuff", this "stuff"
    gets a changeset number in the future, not in the past. No matter if the
    "stuff" was created in the past. Is this the case or not?

    I mean, somehow there must be a way to number the changesets so that
    applying them in order generates something coherent.
