patman: Fix doctest StringIO import for python 3.x

2016-10-09T15:30:32+00:00

In python 3.x StringIO is no longer a module, and the class can instead
be found in the io module. Adjust the code in the doctest input to
account for both.

patman: Use items() to iterate over dictionaries

2016-10-09T15:30:32+00:00

In python 3.x the iteritems() method has been removed from dictionaries,
and the items() method does effectively the same thing. On python 2.x
using items() is a little less efficient since it involves copying data,
but as speed isn't a concern in this code switch to using items() anyway
for simplicity.

patman: Import 'configparser' lower case to be python 3.x safe

2016-10-09T15:30:32+00:00

In python 3.x module names used in import statements are case sensitive,
and the configparser module is named in all lower-case. Import it as such
in order to avoid errors when running with python 3.x.

patman: Make print statements python 3.x safe

2016-10-09T15:30:32+00:00

In python 3.x, print must be used as a function call. Convert all print
statements to the function call style, importing from __future__ where
we print with no trailing newline or print to a file object.

patman: Read in the git-mailrc alias file

2015-02-15T21:34:06+00:00

We should read this file to obtain a set of aliases. This reduces the need
to create them in the ~/.patman file.

This feature did exist in some version of patman, and is mentioned in the
help but it did not find its way upstream.

patman: Add the concept of multiple projects

2013-01-31T23:23:40+00:00

There are cases that we want to support different settings (or maybe
even different aliases) for different projects.  Add support for this
by:
* Adding detection for two big projects: U-Boot and Linux.
* Adding default settings for Linux (U-Boot is already good with the
  standard patman defaults).
* Extend the new "settings" feature in .patman to specify per-project
  settings.

patman: Add support for settings in .patman

2013-01-31T23:23:40+00:00

This patch adds support for a [settings] section in the .patman file.
In this section you can add settings that will affect the default
values for command-line options.

Support is added in a generic way such that any setting can be updated
by just referring to the "dest" of the option that is passed to the
option parser.  At the moment options that would make sense to put in
settings are "ignore_errors", "process_tags", and "verbose".  You
could override them like:

 [settings]
 ignore_errors: True
 process_tags: False
 verbose: True

The settings functionality is also used in a future change which adds
support for per-project settings.

patman: Handle creation of patman config file

2012-06-19T20:51:55+00:00

patman shouts when it couldn't find a $(HOME)/.patman file.
Handle it in a sane way by creating a new one for the user.
It looks for a user.name and user.email in the global .gitconfig
file, waits for the user input if it can't find there. Update the
same in the README

patman: Change the location of patman config file

2012-06-19T20:51:36+00:00

Move the config file from ~/.config/patman to ~/.patman as it is
more appropriate to have it there. Update the same in the README.
