I find it hard to believe I'm the only one that attempted to check out the repo in Windows in the past seven months. Anywho, from the docs I read on how the build chain patches the name shouldn't matter as I was looking at dropping a PR for removing the colon so Windows doesn't whine like a little kid that had it's candy taken away on the following file.
LibreELEC.tv/packages/linux/patches/default/linux-999.21-intel_idle:-Disable-C6N-and-C6S-on-Bay-Trail.patch
Looks like 8.2 on up for branches. So, does the team prefer PR for each branch......or both branches in one, etc?
