Thanks. I would be happy to do that, but what would the extent of such a repository be? These patches span at least two repos with changes to the kernel, the vmmapi library, bhyve, and the UEFI-EDK2 firmware. If the idea is that you should be able to build directly from a cloned repository, I would need a specific baseline, and there may have to be tags to link tested combinations of bhyve and UEFI/CSM code. It's not Android-level of complexity, but I wonder if it's worth the effort. If the point is simply to add the few files I have updated, in order to compare different versions and make changes, that's another thing. However, in that case, it would be harder to track the FreeBSD repo. I have been busy for the past two weeks, so the version I released is still the latest I have. If you have a specific idea of what this repo should look like, you are welcome to create it for me. Otherwise, it may have to wait until I have switched to 13-CURRENT as the baseline. /Henrik
