This week rc release is also quite normal. The ‘fallthought’ comment conversion made fairly evenly distributed changes. Torvalds says it was quite calm. Indeed, only one patchset got my interest this week. I guess it was maybe due to the Linux Plumbers Conference.

Below is the diffstat of the releases in the last two years.

Note that the y-axis is in logarithm. I draw it using https://github.com/sjp38/relstat and https://github.com/sjp38/lazybox using below command:

$ relstat.py --since 2018-08-24 | ~/lazybox/gnuplot/plot.py \
    --data_fmt table --type labeled-lines --xtics_rotate -90 \
    --font "Times New Roman, 5pt" --ylog --pointsize 0.3

And, below is the diffstat of the -rc3 releases in the last two years.
