Please teach me a little bit more.
Assme the HEAD of u-boo-arm/master is
commit 2a8c9c86b92a9ccee3c27286de317e19bb0530b3
Let's say I want to apply 7 patches
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393819/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393818/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393815/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393875/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393814/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393814/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/393813/
and then send a pull request to you.
Those seven patches are not applicable on commit 2a8c9c86b,
because some prerequisite commits are missing.
So, I need to apply them onto commit be9f643ae6aa9044c60fe80e3a2c10be8371c692
(= the HEAD of Tom's repo.)
In this case, how should I generate the pull-req message?
git request-pull be9f643 git://git.denx.de/u-boot-uniphier.git master
Is this OK?
The wiki page (http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/CustodianGitTrees)
says to do:
git request-pull ${upstream}/master git://git.denx.de/u-boot-${subrepo}.git master
But
git request-pull 2a8c9c86b git://git.denx.de/u-boot-uniphier.git master
will output a list of too much commits.
Best Regards
Masahiro Yamada
