[U-Boot] Should be Acked-by and Reviewed-by inherited for updated patches?

[Masahiro Yamada]

Hello exports.


When re-posting updated a patch (or patch series),
should be Acked-by and Reviewed-by tag inherited?


Let me give an example.


I posted
"First step towards Kbuild: Use Kbuild style makefiles"  v3.


Simon reviewed it and issued Acked-by tag.

> The series:
> 
> Acked-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>



But, unfortunately the series cannot be applied on the
current u-boot/master any more.
I will need to rebase the series on the u-boot/master
and re-post them as v4.


In this case, should I include
Acked-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>
in the log of v4 series?


I think Acked-by tag for v3 cannot garantee
the validity of v4.
So, strictly speaking, I think I should drop
Acked-by tag if any change exists between v3 and v4.

Or should I use a common sense?
