* contrib: fix sendemail validate scriptRobin Jarry2023-03-081-8/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current sendemail-validate script cannot be used for patch series. It works on each patch independently from the others and make it impossible to use when there are inter dependencies. I have submitted an alternate validate script that works on whole series which is still waiting for reviews. In the meantime, propose to use my script which can work. To install it in your environment: curl -Lo ~/.local/bin/git-send-email \ https://paste.sr.ht/blob/cedcf24383022949c8dc5bc1300cf5cbc879b36f echo 'export GIT_EXEC_PATH=$PATH:$(git --exec-path)' >> ~/.profile Link: https://lore.kernel.org/git/20230103231133.64050-1-robin@jarry.cc/ Link: https://paste.sr.ht/~rjarry/7e9a98866ba2c6f34e4169debf4f2c14b574613e Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc>

* ci: move check-patches at the end of pipelinesRobin Jarry2022-12-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | This is less important than reporting actual coding errors. Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc> Acked-by: Moritz Poldrack <moritz@poldrack.dev>
* sendemail-validate: add human readable recommendationsRobin Jarry2022-12-151-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | When the patch fails to apply, users may get an obscure error from git: error: sha1 information is lacking or useless (commands/msg/reply.go). error: could not build fake ancestor Add explicit error messages indicating what happened and what should be done.

* contributing: add tooling for git send-emailRobin Jarry2022-12-141-0/+11
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>
