Any comments? Could we add ext4/jbd2 to mm tree for a wider testing?
ext4 developers should create a git tree with the consensus-accepted
patches.
That way Linus can pull as soon as the merge window opens, Andrew is
guaranteed to have the latest in his -mm tree, and users and other
kernel hackers can easily follow the development without having to
gather scattered patches from lkml.
We do maintain a quilt(akpm) style patches on http://ext2.sf.net, the
latest patches are always at
http://ext2.sourceforge.net/48bitext3/patches/latest/
We thought about doing git initially, still open for that doing do, if
it's more preferable by Linus or Andrew. Just thought it's a lot
easiler for non git user to pull the patches from a project website.
Thanks, Mingming
