scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --git-blame
Julia Lawall suggested that get_maintainers.pl should have the ability to include signatories of commits that are modified by a particular patch. Vegard Nossum did something similar once. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/29/449 The modified script looks the commits for all lines in the patch, and includes the "-by:" signatories for those commits. It uses the same git-min-percent, git-max-maintainers, and git-min-signatures options. git-since is ignored. It can be used independently from the --git default, so ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl --nogit --git-blame <patch> or ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl --nogit --git-blame -f <file> is acceptable. If used with -f <file>, all lines/commits for the file are checked. --git-blame can be slow if used with -f <file> --git-blame does not work with -f <directory> Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
