No.

I don't know what the *** people have been doing in that tree, but it 
looks like the _same_ branch was merged twice after rebasing:

	Merge branch 'for_2_6_33_rc_a' of git://git.pwsan.com/linux-2.6 into omap-fixes-2.6.33-rc3
	Merge branch 'for_2.6.33rc_b' of git://git.pwsan.com/linux-2.6 into omap-fixes-for-linus

This is why we don't rebase public trees, and I refuse to pull crap like 
that. You need to teach the people you work with to not rebase, and the 
only way I can say "stop" is by simply not pulling the crap.

There are other problems with that branch too - the "committer" 
information is pure sh*t. It says "paul <paul at twilight.(none)>", so quite 
frankly, somebody hasn't even read the very first chapter of just about 
every single git documentation that is out there.

And now that I noticed, I see that the crap-for-brains committer info has 
been going on for a long time, and I just hadn't looked closely enough 
before. I didn't look closely enough to see if the rebase problem had also 
happened before.
