It sounds like you have done a _major_ no-no, which is to pull from his tree, and then rebase it. DO NOT DO THAT! NOT EVER! If you pull from somebody elses tree, you can no longer touch the commit. It absolutely has to stay the same. Otherwise we see this kind of insane duplication. You're doing something seriously wrong here. I wrote a long rant about what the rules were last release cycle, but now I can't find it. Basically, if you're not the committer, you really must never EVER touch it. [ Anybody with enough google-fu to find my rant, so I don't have to re-rant? ] Linus -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
