That is just a bot glitch. I actually applied only patch 4/9 to the net-next tree. I hope this is not too much scarying/confusing. Thanks, Paolo

How about removing the Documentation/scsi/ChangeLog.* files? I'm not sure these changelogs are still useful since these duplicate information that is already available in the output of git log ${driver_directory}. Thanks, Bart.

Actually, the information in those files mostly predates the git era, so you won't find it that way. I *still* question their value, though... jon

In the pre-source control days they were the answer to the GPLv2 Section 2 requirement to " carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change." If you remove the files you may run afoul of the GPLv2 Section 1 requirement to "keep intact all the notices that refer to this License". Of course, nowadays we assume the source control does this for us, so people rarely think of these requirements, but for files that predate source control I think you need to consider the licence implications.
