I merely wanted to get the patterns accepted. I thought the P/M: integration was an unnecessary complication that would delay pattern acceptance. So I use scripts/get_maintainer.pl "as is". Suggestions on improvements to the script are of course gladly accepted... If the script doesn't work well for you, please let me know. If the P/M: conversion is desired, I've no objection. The script would have to change though. There are command line options to control email address output style: For instance: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f Documentation/DocBook/sh.tmpl linux-doc@vger.kernel.org linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Randy Dunlap Paul Mundt with option "--no-n" (also "--non") (Do not output "name") $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-n -f Documentation/DocBook/sh.tmpl linux-doc@vger.kernel.org linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org rdunlap@xenotime.net lethal@linux-sh.org with option "--no-l" (do not output "mailing lists") $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-l -f Documentation/DocBook/sh.tmpl Randy Dunlap Paul Mundt with option "--no-m" (do not output "maintainers" , just use git log "by:" signors) $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-m -f Documentation/DocBook/sh.tmpl linux-doc@vger.kernel.org linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Paul Mundt with option "--no-multiline", the output is on a single line $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-multiline -f Documentation/DocBook/sh.tmpl linux-doc@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Randy Dunlap , Paul Mundt The entry separator (default ", ") is specified with --separator By default, "subscriber-only" mailing lists are not output. Use "--l --s" to output lists and lists that are "subscriber-only". There is a defect in the script right now with "subscriber-only" mailing lists. The regex check is not broad enough. I'll submit a patch for that shortly. cheers, Joe
