Pulled.
Any plans to further sanitize the namespace?
It's kind of crazy to have filenames like
fs/xfs/xfs_trace.c
which just duplicate the "xfs" part for no good reason. Why not just do something like
for i in xfs_*; do j=$(echo $i | sed 's/^xfs_//'); git mv $i $j; done
to get rid of the silly "xfs_" prefix that adds nothing?
You could use the bytes you save to rename "qm.c" to "quota_manager.c" instead. Wouldn't it be nice to have *good* names, instead of a jumble of crazy and mostly redundant letters?
