Hi folks,
During LPC Linus brought up a concern that linux-next is too lightly
tested, and pull requests that end up reaching him still might be
functionally broken (and kill his laptop).
linux-next works great as an integration branch as far as conflicts
between trees and build issues go, but it's volatile state makes it very
difficult to test it. For example, a single for-next branch that wasn't
tested can ruin testing for everyone else.
I've proposed a new "linus-next" tree which is composed of pull
requests that were sent to Linus. This (in theory) will give us a higher
quality tree that will be composed only of pull requests that were sent
to Linus but not picked up yes. Basically, we'll be frontrunning Linus
as he goes on with his merges.
The tree is located at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sashal/linus-next.git and
the branch is 'linus-next'.
As far as testing goes, I think that it should be equivalent to what
Linus's tree gets, but I'm open to suggestions.
Thank you!
