i dont see how those are relevant here seeing as how they all have my Signed- off-by tag ... that implies both my ack and test. i figured pinging every non-Blackfin-specific patch by me would be more time consuming than a simple pull request for you. would it be ok if i used a different branch then and indicated in the summary along those lines ? i.e. something like: Subject: Pull request u-boot-blackfin.git non-blackfin Message: Here are patches by me that are not Blackfin-related, but have all been posted previously without any more review. The following changes since commit 4d0b54685c5c656023b826089ef8cc0ea1c5cd9e: Haavard Skinnemoen (1): Merge branch 'fixes' are available in the git repository at: git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot-blackfin.git non-blackfin ... > But applying unrelated patches to your Blackfin repo is not helpful. > If every custodian was doing this, we would have a terrible mess very > quickly and I had no chance to understand who is doing what or what is > coming from where. > > Please use the Blackfinn repo for Blackfin specific stuff only (at > least the master branch for which you send pull requests in your > position as a custodian). np -mike
