The repository is called "renesas-devel".
The branch Stephen pulls is "next" (colloquially called "renesas-next" ;-)
The linux-next-specific handle Stephen uses is called "renesas".

Cfr. "git show next-20191011:Next/Trees | grep renesas".

I hope this clears up the confusion...

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
