linux.ie: An Interview With Andrea Arcangeli

[ Thanks to Ken Guest
for this link. ]

Andrea is active on the Kernel mailing list (& works on
the kernel)…and works for SuSE.

“Do you use revision control systems of some kind?”

“Yes I used CVS for some time to maintain my kernel tree. CVS
makes trivial to merge new kernel releases and patches. The merging
feature of CVS is pretty cool and I see it as superior than the
patch binary. Nevertheless the merging features of patch could be
improved too. The “rejects” way used by patch is not the best
IMHO.”
