Problem with b4

Problem with b4

[Linus Walleij]

Hi Konstantin,

I'm trying to use b4 to download a series for application
of GPIO patches but run into this:

$ b4 am -t 20200323195401.30338-1-Sergey.Semin@baikalelectronics.ru

This is weird because I am looking at the v3 version
of patch [4/6] here for example:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-gpio/20200323195401.30338-5-Sergey.Semin@baikalelectronics.ru/

It seems to be in-reply-to the right message and everything.

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I just installed b4 on this machine with pip3 install --user b4

Nothing, really -- the problem is that when we look up that message-id 
across all the lists we have, the first hit is on the devicetree list, 
and apparently only *some* of the patches were sent there. I have a fix 
for this in b4 v0.4.0 (not yet released):

I am not quite ready to release 0.4.0, so if you don't want to use b4 
straight out of git, you can pass `-p lkml` to the version you have 
installed from pip, an most of the time it should do the right thing.

I hope to have 0.4.0 out in the next few days.
