I believe you are supposed to merge from HEAD to 9, not from 10 to 9. But also, I find these log messages quite noisy. I much prefer just: MFC <head rev>: <original log message> Where the <original log message> is not extra-indented but is formatted similar to a normal commit. On a more general note, if I'm merging a change with several followup fixes, I 1) always merge the entire batch of changes so as not to leave stable/ in a broken state (most folks also do this), and 2) I don't cut and paste all N logs verbatim. This tends to be very hard to read. Instead, I do 'MFC <list of head revs>' and then use a brief summary of the change being merged. Often this means using the log message of the first change (which introduces the new feature and explains it) but omitting short descriptions of specific bugs fixed (which aren't very useful to someone reading the stable log message as the commit in question is introducing the needed feature in its fixed state.) This does require a bit more effort editorial wise, but I think it results in commit logs for stable that are more readable. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ svn-src-stable-9@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-stable-9 To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-stable-9-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
