patman: check git format.subjectprefix setting when generate patches prefix

2015-04-23T18:35:50+00:00

For the local project, we may specified format.subjectprefix setting.
Then the patch will be formated as [Project_prefix][PATCH].
But patman will not check this setting. It will remove the
format.subjectprefix.

So This patch will let patman check this setting and add it as a
project prefix.

patman: Make dry-run output match real functionality

2015-01-30T22:52:29+00:00

When run with the --dry-run argument patman prints out information
showing what it would do.  This information currently doesn't line up
with what patman/git send-email really do.  Some basic examples:
- If an email address is addressed via "Series-cc" and "Patch-cc" patman
  shows that email address would be CC-ed two times.
- If an email address is addressed via "Series-to" and "Patch-cc" patman
  shows that email address would be sent TO and CC-ed.
- If an email address is addressed from a combination of tag aliases,
  get_maintainer.pl output, "Series-cc", "Patch-cc", etc patman shows
  that the email address would be CC-ed multiple times.

Patman currently does try to send duplicate emails like the --dry-run
output shows, but "git send-email" intelligently removes duplicate
addresses so this patch shouldn't change the non-dry-run functionality.

Change patman's output and email addressing to line up with the
"git send-email" logic.  This trims down patman's dry-run output and
prevents confusion about what patman will do when emails are actually
sent.

buildman: Allow specifying a range of commits to build

Adjust the -b flag to permit a range expression as well as a branch.

buildman: Try to guess the upstream commit

2015-01-15T05:16:52+00:00

Buildman normally obtains the upstream commit by asking git. Provided that
the branch was created with 'git checkout -b  ' then
this normally works.

When there is no upstream, we can try to guess one, by looking up through
the commits until we find a branch. Add a function to try this and print
a warning if buildman ends up relying on it.

Also update the documentation to match.

patman: RunPipe() should not pipe stdout/stderr unless asked

2014-09-09T22:38:24+00:00

RunPipe() currently pipes the output of stdout and stderr to a pty, but
this is not the intended behaviour. Fix it.

work. Fix it.

patman: Use --no-pager' to stop git from forking a pager

2014-09-05T19:40:42+00:00

In a headless environment the pager can apparently hang. We don't want a
pager anyway so let's request that none be used.

patman: Remove the -a option

2014-09-05T19:40:42+00:00

It seems that this is no longer needed, since checkpatch.pl will catch
whitespace problems in patches. Also the option is not widely used, so
it seems safe to just remove it.

patman: Correct unit tests to run correctly

2014-09-05T19:40:41+00:00

It seems that doctest behaves differently now, and some of the unit tests
do not run. Adjust the tests to work correctly.
