I'm happy to do that, but it is outside the scope of my limited git
experience. My guess is that I should do this (doing the pull into a
branch which I later merge into my -next branch):
$ git checkout -b pci/yinghai-survey-resources+acpi-scan
pci/yinghai-survey-resources
$ git pull --no-ff --log
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git
acpi-scan
$ vi drivers/acpi/pci_root.c # resolve conflicts
$ git add drivers/acpi/pci_root.c
$ git commit
$ git checkout next
$ git merge --no-ff --log pci/yinghai-survey-resources+acpi-scan
Is that reasonable? This won't cause issues when both Rafael and I
ask Linus to pull from our trees later?
