The problem of git is that you need to keep the whole Linux kernel tree if you only develops a simple device driver. You need to keep ~200MB files for your (<=) 100KB driver. And when the other people try to fetch the driver, they just see the whole tree. "Where is the driver?" So, the traditional way: diff, diffstat, comments and sign-off works better than git format-patch. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "loongson-dev" group.
