Hello Egbert!

Egbert Eich [Thu, Jul 03, 2008 at 06:55:28AM -0700]:
New branch 'atombios_support' available with the following commits:

I am using git quite often and wanted to ask you, whether
you can create a branch or add tags for releases that may
be tested by "advanced endusers"?

I would often like to do git-fetch && git-merge ... && build
and see if the driver made some progress (the standard
console is with the version I use currently broken again,
see my last post) on something that will compile and
*should* work -- I do not care if it has bugs, I'll
throw them back to the list anyway -- but I am not
interested in non-compiling versions.

So long text, short question ;-)

The stuff that gets committed usually works for the committer.
Sometimes this may not be the case do to an error. Usually this
gets fixed pretty soon as people start complaining on irc
immediately.
Therefore from a developers' perspective each committed version
of the driver should qualify for what you would like to see.

Normal releases are a totally different story. There we try
not only provide code that has received some minimal testing
by us but also have addressed issue that have been reported
to us.

Cheers,
Egbert.
