I have mixed results. I have the suspicion that stuff from tah main config (i486) may leak into e.g. wrap weher it's unwanted - on the other hand adding a feature for all architectures is pretty easy the way we work today. > - including kernel release information in the names of the config > files > does IMHO help anything and is _not_ version tool friendly I disagree; the release information is used from make/toolcahin/[architecture] and was introduced to allow a different kernel version for an architectures that won't build with the current kernel version. Though this isn't used very often, I've used it during on beta versions in the past - upgrading the kernel for ARCH=i386 whilst keeping the older kernel version for ARCH=arm. > So I would suggest to drop the diffing method and return to generic > config name, e.g. > > - drop the diffes and use enter the specific configurations into git Both are there at the moment. > - drop the kernel version in the config files and make them generic > (inside the various kernel source there is never a version mentioned > in > the filenames.
