Hi Simon I tried to use patman with a sample commit, below is the commit with the tag patmantest
Commit: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ $ git show patmantest tag patmantest Tagger: Mugunthan V N <mugunthan...@ti.com> Date: Thu Feb 4 11:51:48 2016 +0530 Series-to: me Series-prefix: RFC Cover-letter: Unified command execution in one place At present two parsers have similar code to execute commands. Also cmd_usage() is called all over the place. This series adds a single function which processes commands called cmd_process().
