Seems I goofed and should have Cc'd Christian Marangi when sending this. The script seems to work fine. One remaining issue is whether any adjustment to the commit messages on the generated commits is desired. I'm unsure they need "Signed-off-by" since they're tool-generated. I also wonder whether the script should claim to be the author. The one difference is this does all kernel configs in one pass. This seems superior as it makes rebasing proposed patches *much* simpler. Specifically there is far less update work without continuously appearing and disappearing configs. This also means only a single commit per year which troubles bisecting. -- (\___(\___(\______ --=> 8-) EHM <=-- ______/)___/)___/) \BS ( | [email protected] PGP 87145445 | ) / \_CS\ | _____ -O #include <stddisclaimer.h> O- _____ | / _/ 8A19\___\_|_/58D2 7E3D DDF4 7BA6 <-PGP-> 41D1 B375 37D0 8714\_|_/___/5445 _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
