Dear Charles Manning,

I recently sent a message to the list announcing a method for patching in the latest yaffs2.
u-boot updated with the latest yaffs2 can be pulled from git@github.com:cdhmanning/u-boot-yaffs2.git
Please read http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches and post proper patch(es) for review.
At least one of the files exceeds the 100k patch limit.
I know you'd like patches, but there are two really easy options for someone on the inside to do this:
- Run the script off the yaffs git
-or- 2) Merge from the https://github.com/cdhmanning/u-boot-yaffs2
So this means things have gotten really far out of sync. Would you be willing to say that in the future you'll be submitting regular well formatted and broken down patches like I assume you do in the yaffs2 tree itself so we can avoid this in the future?
yaffs went through a large reformat a while ago meaning that the current code does not diff well against the old code. Future changes shuld be a lot easier to handle with direct patching.
yaffs changes typically don't go through the yaffs list since people with direct git checkin access do 95-99% of the changes.
Right, but a proper set of individual patches could be posted and reviewed in the future, yes?
That makes sense to me.
