For something like freedesktop.org, I have no trouble at all. It's the
totally anonymous trees that I don't want to worry about - they've
been ok for the later part of the -rc stage, when the commits are few
and small and I can just verify that it all looks ok, but for big
changes I definitely want more of a trustworthy source.

Oh, but make sure your pull requests are valid. Look at the pull
requests you've been sending me: they have things like "~/" in them,
which probably works for you, but does *not* work for me. You need to
make it "~airlied/" or whatever. Again, fixing things like that up is
fine when I only have a few small pull requests, but it's a major pain
in the rear during the chaos that is the merge window.

Thanks,
          Linus
