  • 535aad29f   MAINTAINERS: comment out blank M: field ... Browse Code »

    Since commit ddaf5c8f3030050fcd356a1e49e3ee8f8f52c6d4
    (patman: RunPipe() should not pipe stdout/stderr unless asked),
    Patman spits lots of "Invalid MAINTAINERS address: '-'"
    error messages for patches with global changes.
    It takes too long for Patman to process them.

    Anyway, "M: -" does not carry any important information.
    Rather, it is just like a place holder in case of assigning
    a new board maintainer. Let's comment out.

    This commit can be reproduced by the following command:

    find . -name MAINTAINERS | xargs sed -i -e '/^M:[[:blank:]]*-$/s/^/#/'

    We have switched to Kconfig and the boards.cfg file is going to
    be removed. We have to retrieve the board status and maintainers
    information from it.

    The MAINTAINERS format as in Linux Kernel would be nice
    because we can crib the scripts/get_maintainer.pl script.

    After some discussion, we chose to put a MAINTAINERS file under each
    board directory, not the top-level one because we want to collect
    relevant information for a board into a single place.

    TODO:
    Modify get_maintainer.pl to scan multiple MAINTAINERS files.
