I clicked on the 6.8.1 link but didn't see the usual summary of commits. Is this an oversight or the new way of doing things? Could anyone let me know how to generate the summary?

Replying to myself... looks like only five commits since 6.8.0 and the most important is a mitigation for the Register File Data Sampling hardware vulnerability.

No, I didn't look at that link. I looked at the logs in the Linux git-scm web interface.

Ah, OK. That is a little outside my scope. ;-) Thanks for the quick reply. Have a good weekend.
