quilt tree is fine for leaf tree changes but problems occur when other
changes need to be based off the tree as is the case here. Is it
possible for you to provide mid-synchronization git commits? It means
starting up a new quilt tree after each synchronization point (as rc1
merge points would) but it could be an acceptable mid-point for both
trees if the number of sync points aren't too many.

Thanks.
