Hi,

I just noticed that the stable repository has the linux-5.17.y tag and no branch with the linux-5.17.y name. That tag looks like a copy of Linus' v5.17.

I guess this is a mistake. On my side git refused to push the linux-5.17.y branch because it already had a tag with the same name.

I have not created the 5.17.y branch yet.

What tag are you seeing?

Ah, I see that now. That's odd. I've deleted it, I don't know how that got created, maybe our scripts messed up. Something went "odd" on the release that git.kernel.org told me about, but I have to wait until some people wake up in the Americas before I can figure out what actually happened.

thanks,
