I assume you will apply to drm-misc-next - OK?
I still haven't got around to using dim :-)
I can manage - so the entry level is pretty low.
My lame and simple workflow
dim update-branches # save patch from mutt cat mbox | dim apply git rebase etc. dim checkpatch <= if I make changes while applying #build testing dim push
And when I do my own stuff: dim update-branches git checkout -b sam-my-stuff hacking-hacking commit, commit git rebase --exec "dim add-missing-cc" HEAD~5
dim can do much more than that - but the above is the few dim commands I use. This help me to do things remotely correct.
So maybe this is as good as any time to try out dim?
As good as any, and as bad as any I suppose :-)
There are a few things I don't like with dim, and I haven't found time yet to see how to fix (how live with :-) them yet. Among those issues are
- dim requires the kernel tree to be under $DIM_PREFIX. This is my main issue, as I have one kernel tree per project, with and develop for different subsystems in each. I would like dim to instead handle any kernel tree regardless of where it is located on the disk, without requiring me to add another DRM-specific tree to my workflow.
- The script auto-updates itself, and I find that to be a security issue that I'm not comfortable with.
- The dim script makes a special case of intel repositories internally, which I don't find very fair. Maybe that can be considered as a compensation for Intel's efforts in DRM development, but a model where the community maintaining drm-misc has to resolve conflicts with drm-intel before it reaches drm-next bothers me.
The second issue is easy to solve by commenting out auto-update (not sure if Daniel will like that though :-)), and the third one isn't really a blocker, but the first one currently prevents me from using dim.
