Do we have standartized way to mark "this is not for stable"? Because
I often think "I'd really hate to see this in stable"...
On a related note, it would be nice to have standartized way to
marking corresponding upstream commit. (Currently three methods are in
use).
Upstream: XXXX
in the signoff area would be nice, clearly marking who touched the
patch before mainline and who after.
Best regards,
Pavel
