[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH v2] Add basic b4 config file
b4[1] is a convenient tool for mail-based contribution. A config file[2] tracked in the tree lets the project ship a few defaults that match the Xen patch submission rules. This aims to help new contributors who have never used a mailing list avoid mistakes when sending their patch series. The tree has no scripts/checkpatch.pl or equivalent, so there is nothing for b4 to run per patch. Disable the needs-checking pre-flight check so a series can be sent without first running b4 prep --check.
