Is the single patch should be picked manually, from the PatchWork? If it is, then this is work that custodian does. Can a custodian pick a patch from the mailing list (say if PatchWork is down or whatever)? If yes, then this is also the work that custodian does. For my understanding, the delivery ends with *unique commit id* in some repository, which then can get pulled, but has history intact. Nevertheless, it is a meter of choice, that should be made. I'm fine with any choice we will make. -- Regards, Igor. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
