patman: Use the full commit hash for 'git checkout'

2014-11-27T03:25:39+00:00

Even with the initial 8 characeters of the hash we will sometimes get a
collision. Use the full hash.

patman: Add a -m option to avoid copying the maintainers

2014-09-21T18:03:07+00:00

The get_maintainers script is a useful default, but sometimes is copies
too many people, or takes a long time to run.

Add an option to disable it and update the README.

patman: make run results better visible

2014-09-09T22:38:31+00:00

For an occasional user of patman some failures are not obvious: for
instance when checkpatch reports warnings, the dry run still reports
that the email would be sent. If it is not dry run, the warnings are
shown on the screen, but it is not clear that the email was not sent.

Add some code to report failure to send email explicitly.

Tested by running the script on a patch with style violations,
observed error messages in the script output.

buildman: Ignore conflicting tags

2014-09-09T22:38:31+00:00

Tags like Series-version are normally expected to appear once, and with a
unique value. But buildman doesn't actually look at these tags. So ignore
conflicts.

This allows bulidman to build a branch containing multiple patman series.

patman: Start with a clean series when needed

2014-09-09T22:38:30+00:00

For reasons that are not well-understood, GetMetaDataForList() can end up
adding to an existing series even when it appears that it should be
starting a new one.

Change from using a default constructor parameter to an explicit one, to
work around this problem.

patman: Provide a way to intercept commands for testing

2014-09-09T22:38:27+00:00

Add a test point for the command module. This allows tests to emulate
the execution of commands. This provides more control (since we can make
the fake 'commands' do whatever we like), makes it faster to write tests
since we don't need to set up as much environment, and speeds up test
execution.

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.

patman: Add a way of recording terminal output for testing

2014-09-09T19:54:22+00:00

When running unit tests we don't want output to go to the terminal.
Provide a way of collecting it so that it can be examined by test code
later.

patman: Fix detection of git version

2014-09-05T19:40:43+00:00

A missing 'global' declaration means that this feature does not currently
work. Fix it.

patman: Avoid changing the order of tags

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

patman collects tags that it sees in the commit and places them nicely
sorted at the end of the patch. However, this is not really necessary and
in fact is apparently not desirable.
