* check-patches: ignore .mailmap for author and s-o-b trailer checkRobin Jarry2022-12-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | We don't care that they are known in .mailmap as long as both match. Reported-by: Moritz Poldrack <moritz@poldrack.dev> Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc>
* contributing: add tooling for git send-emailRobin Jarry2022-12-141-0/+39
Add a gitconfig target in the Makefile to configure a new clone with sane defaults: - set subject prefix - set correct mailing list address - enable sendemail.validate - install sendemail-validate hook The sendemail-validate hook will make a shallow clone of the current upstream repo, apply every patch on it and run some checks (a stripped down version of what is run by the upstream CI). Add a new check-patches script that verifies that the commit message actually contains something and that the Signed-off-by trailer from the patch author is present. Call check-patches in both the CI and the sendemail-validate hook. Update CONTRIBUTING.md accordingly. Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc> Acked-by: Tim Culverhouse <tim@timculverhouse.com>
