patman: Show base commit on each patch when no cover letter

2025-04-10T17:57:56Z

If a series is sent without a cover letter, there is no indication of the base commit. Add support for this, since single patches of small series may not always have a cover letter. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

u_boot_pylib: Move gitutil into the library

2025-02-17T17:17:55Z

Move this file into U-Boot's Python library, so that it is no-longer part of patman. This makes a start on: https://source.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-dm/-/issues/35 Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: Add a 'keep_change_id' setting

2023-11-02T15:38:54Z

A Change-Id can be useful for traceability purposes, and some projects may wish to have them preserved. This change makes it configurable via a new 'keep_change_id' setting. Signed-off-by: Maxim Cournoyer Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

patman: Drop an incorrect comment about git am

2023-03-08T21:15:14Z

Patman does not do this anymore, as of this commit: 7428dc14b0f ("patman: Remove the -a option") Drop the comment. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass Reviewed-by: Douglas Anderson

patman: Move library functions into a library directory

2023-03-08T19:40:49Z

The patman directory has a number of modules which are used by other tools in U-Boot. This makes it hard to package the tools using pypi since the common files must be copied along with the tool that uses them. To address this, move these files into a new u_boot_pylib library. This can be packaged separately and listed as a dependency of each tool. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass

patman: add '--get-maintainer-script' argument

2023-01-06T02:21:57Z

This makes it possible to configure a project to use some other location or script than the default scripts/get_maintainer.pl one used in the U-Boot and Linux projects. It can be configured via a .patman configuration file and accepts arguments, as documented. Reviewed-by: Simon Glass Signed-off-by: Maxim Cournoyer

patman: By default don't pass "--no-tree" to checkpatch for linux

2022-07-26T08:30:56Z

When you pass "--no-tree" to checkpatch it disables some extra checks that are important for Linux. Specifically I want checks like: warning: DT compatible string "boogie,woogie" appears un-documented check ./Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ Let's make the default for Linux to _not_ pass --no-tree. We'll have a config option and command line flag to override. Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson Reviewed-by: Simon Glass

patman: Rename Color() method to build()

2022-02-09T19:30:13Z

This method has the same name as its class which is confusing. It is also annoying when searching the code. It builds a string with a colour, so rename it to build(). Signed-off-by: Simon Glass
