What's the preferred maintainer workflow?  I had been fetching and then rebasing, which seemed to keep my shortlog clean of merge commits and the outstanding patches towards the top.  Should I just be pulling from upstream and not caring about the merge commits?

Also, as a point of clarification, if I do get my kernel.org tree back, should I continue to sign tags for pull-requests or was that just for external repos like github?
