Question: no-cfg80211 / no_cfg80211 #56

Closed wmbr closed 3 years ago

wmbr commented 6 years ago

Sorry to bother you, but I couldn't help noticing that you recently abandoned a lot of commits on no_cfg80211 in favor of a new branch no-cfg80211 and reset master accordingly. Is it possible to briefly explain the difference between these two?

That was a typo. There has been a lot of work lately at fixing the problems with a cfg80211 build. It has been working very well, and I suggest that none of the non-cfg80211 branches be used.

So "no_cfg80211" points to the former "master" branch (which was not using cfg80211), whereas the new "master" branch does use cfg80211. Because of this switch to cfg80211 all of your commits between 2014-07-11 and 2018-03-07 became unnecessary. And finally the branch "no-cfg80211" was created by accident and has no relevance. Did I understand that correctly?

Thanks for your work on this project.
