I think we should generally adapt the options for get_maintainers.pl patman uses to not include all committers by default. Either we could completely disable git (--nogit-fallback). Or we could increase the minimum percentage of commits required (--git-min-percent 10). -- - Daniel _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
