The rule is currently CC the first bad commit's author and committer.
In this case,
commit 4184a1e415257e3d2e75a5adf184de9ffaf82a7c

scsi: use 64-bit LUNs
=>
TO: Hannes Reinecke <[email protected]>
CC: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]>
Do you mean adding rule
if error_file =~ /drivers\/staging/
TO/CC error_file's author/committer instead
end
In this case,
TO: Micky Ching <[email protected]>
CC: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
I agree that it'd be good for Micky to work out a fix for his staging
driver. However due to the obvious dependency here, it looks best for
you to include the fix together with "scsi: use 64-bit LUNs"?
So in general it'd be good to keep all relevant people in the CC list.
That is,
TO/CC first bad commit's author/committer
for each error_file =~ /drivers\/staging/
CC error_file's author/committer
end
Thanks,
Fengguang
