If it could be automated some way, that would help a lot.
There are a bunch of things which have confused me in the past such as
how RDMA and the net trees interact. Also the Mellanox tree, I used to
think Mellanox maintainers collect patches and send git pulls but
apparently for fixes they prefer if you collect them from mailing list?
I'm looking at my process now and I can see that I was dumb when I set
this up. Just doing a fetch and switching between git trees was taking
4 minutes but I can cut it down to 30 seconds. So some of this was my
fault.
