Since in the sentence you quote i only repeated what you said above (that you
keep commits in Git from before when they are posted: i do that too for
development) i have trouble following your line of thought of how you could
possibly have concluded that i'm "not listening".
I am very much listening, i just do not agree with what you are saying: i think
it's pretty clear that details of your Git workflow are broken and need to be
improved - as demonstrated by the conflict, build breakage and discussion in
this thread.
Anyway, since you unilaterally stopped discussing this topic and since there's
no acknowledgement from you that you'll fix your workflow it appears i have no
choice but to ask you to refrain from modifying any arch/x86/ code in the
future, without an explicit *prior* ack from one of the x86 maintainers.
When you do that they will be able to guide you through when various files are
proper to modify in a separate branch and what to do if there are already
changes in flight.
Thanks,
Ingo
