Correct. I follow next only for tracking how much to expect, and then
verifying the occasional borderline pull (if if something looks fishy,
I might check :was it in linux-next?"). I don't really track it
otherwise.

I wish I wasn't always the bad guy ("when daddy gets home, you'll
really get it"), but one thing that might be worth doing is to just
track what causes failures, and inform me.

If a failure persists, I'll know at least to not pull it.

But that requires that the failures be pinpointed at lest to which
linux-next pull it was, so that you (or somebody else who runs tests)
can do more than "build/boot failed for linux-next", and actually
point to where the failure came in.
