Linux Top 3: Linux 4.2 rc1, 4MLinux 13 and antiX15

The first release candidate for the Linux 4.2 kernel is now available and it’s one of the largest that Linus Torvalds has ever seen.

“If you count the size in pure number of lines changed, this really seems to be the biggest rc we’ve ever had, with over a million lines added (and about a quarter million removed). That beats the previous champion (3.11-rc1) that was huge mainly due to Lustre being
added to the staging tree.”
