Here again patches are split such that the resutling tree will not be bisectable.
It looks like I didn't get you. Do you want me to make relatively small changes to 472 config files into 472 separate patches?
Being able to bisect means that after each single commit the source tree has to be in a state that is at least compile clean, even better actually working.
If you split a set of changes that belong to and depend on each other into two commits, you will have a situation where the tree doesn't build after the first (but before the second) commit. This is a PITA when you use git-bisect to track down bugs in the code, so we try to avoid it whenever possible.
I don't care how many patches you use (as long as it's a resonable number and a reasonabel size), but each of them must be bisectable.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
