get_maintainer: add more --self-test options

2017-11-18T00:10:01+00:00

Add tests for duplicate section headers, missing section content, link and
scm reachability.

Miscellanea:

o Add --self-test= options
  (a comma separated list of any of sections, patterns, links or scm)
  where the default without options is all tests
o Rename check_maintainers_patterns to self_test
o Rename self_test_pattern_info to self_test_info

get_maintainer: add --self-test for internal consistency tests

2017-11-18T00:10:01+00:00

Add "--self-test" option to get_maintainer.pl to show potential
issues in MAINTAINERS file(s) content.

Pattern check warnings are shown for "F" and "X" patterns found in
MAINTAINERS file(s) which do not match any files known by git.

get_maintainer: Prepare for separate MAINTAINERS files

2017-08-08T18:09:31+00:00

Allow for MAINTAINERS to become a directory and if it is,
read all the files in the directory for maintained sections.

Optionally look for all files named MAINTAINERS in directories
excluding the .git directory by using --find-maintainer-files.

This optional feature adds ~.3 seconds of CPU on an Intel
i5-6200 with an SSD.

Miscellanea:

 - Create a read_maintainer_file subroutine from the existing code
 - Test only the existence of MAINTAINERS, not whether it's a file

scripts: Switch to more portable Perl shebang

2017-05-14T02:20:44+00:00

The default NetBSD package manager is pkgsrc and it installs Perl
along other third party programs under custom and configurable prefix.
The default prefix for binary prebuilt packages is /usr/pkg, and the
Perl executable lands in /usr/pkg/bin/perl.

This change switches "/usr/bin/perl" to "/usr/bin/env perl" as it's
the most portable solution that should work for almost everybody.
Perl's executable is detected automatically.

This change switches -w option passed to the executable with more
modern "use warnings;" approach. There is no functional change to the
default behavior.

While there, drop "require 5" from scripts/namespace.pl (Perl from 1994?).

get_maintainer: look for arbitrary letter prefixes in sections

2016-12-13T02:55:09+00:00

Jani Nikula proposes patches to add a few new letter prefixes for "B:"
bug reporting and "C:" maintainer chatting to the various sections of
MAINTAINERS.

Add a generic mechanism to get_maintainer.pl to find sections that have
any combination of "[A-Z]" letter prefix types in a section.

get_maintainer: quiet noisy implicit -f vcs_file_exists checking

2016-08-27T00:39:34+00:00

Checking command line filenames that are outside the git tree can emit a
noisy and confusing message.

Quiet that message by redirecting stderr.
Verify that the command was executed successfully.

get_maintainer: Don't check if STDIN exists in a VCS repository

2016-08-10T17:42:00+00:00

If get_maintainer is not given any filename arguments on the command line,
the standard input is read for a patch.

But checking if a VCS has a file named &STDIN is not a good idea and fails.

Verify the nominal input file is not &STDIN before checking the VCS.

get_maintainer.pl: reduce need for command-line option -f

2016-08-02T23:35:07+00:00

If a vcs is used, look to see if the vcs tracks the file specified and
so the -f option becomes optional.

scripts/get_maintainer.pl: handle file names beginning with ./

2016-01-21T01:09:18+00:00

The problem is that get_maintainer.pl doesn't work if you have a ./
prefix on the filename.  For example, if you type:

  ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c

then the current code only includes LKML and people from the git log, it
doesn't include Greg or the linux-usb list.
