If a vcs is used, look to see if the vcs tracks the file specified and
so the -f option becomes optional.

The problem is that get_maintainer.pl doesn't work if you have a ./
prefix on the filename. For example, if you type:
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c
then the current code only includes LKML and people from the git log, it
doesn't include Greg or the linux-usb list.

Many flag options are boolean and support both a positive and a negative
invocation from the command line. Some of these are even mentioned by
example (e.g., --nogit is mentioned as a default option), but they aren't
explicitly mentioned in the list of options. It happens that some of
these are pretty important, as they are default-on, and to turn them off,
you have to know about the --no-foo version.
Rather than clutter the whole help text with bracketed '--[no]foo', let's
just mention the general rule, a la 'man gcc'.

Section headers can be quite long and some are very long and duplicated

The current maximum length emitted for a section header is 20 bytes (or
17 bytes then ... when the section header length is > 20).
Change that length to 50 so more of the section is shown.

Since git v1.7.7, the .git directory can be a file when, for example,

get_maintainer currently uses "Signed-off-by" style lines to find
interested parties to send patches to when the MAINTAINERS file does not
have a specific section entry with a matching file pattern.
Add statistics for commit authors and lines added and deleted to the
information provided by --rolestats.
These statistics are also emitted whenever --rolestats and --git are
selected even when there is a specified maintainer.
This can have the effect of expanding the number of people that are shown
as possible "maintainers" of a particular file because "authors",
"added_lines", and "removed_lines" are also used as criterion for the
--max-maintainers option separate from the "commit_signers".
The first "--git-max-maintainers" values of each criterion
are emitted. Any "ties" are not shown.
For example: (forcedeth does not have a named maintainer)
Old output:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c

Create a new N: entry type in MAINTAINERS which performs a regex match
against filenames; either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines,
or those specified on the command-line using the -f option.
This provides the same benefits as using a K: regex option to match a
set of filenames (see commit eb90d0855b75 "get_maintainer: allow
keywords to match filenames"), but without the disadvantage that
"random" file content, such as comments, will ever match the regex.
Hence, revert most of that commit.
Switch the Tegra entry from using K: to N:

Allow K: entries in MAINTAINERS to match directly against filenames;
either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines, or those specified
on the command-line using the -f option.
This potentially allows fewer lines in a MAINTAINERS entry, if all the
relevant files are scattered throughout the whole kernel tree, yet
contain some common keyword. An example would be using an ARM SoC name
as the keyword to catch all related drivers.
I don't think setting exact_pattern_match_hash would be appropriate
here; at least for intended Tegra use case, this feature is to ensure
that all Tegra-related driver changes get Cc'd to the Tegra mailing
list. Setting exact_pattern_match_hash would prevent git history
parsing for e.g. S-o-b tags, which still seems like it would be useful.
Hence, this flag isn't set.

I happen to have had a commit to various network drivers since the big
renaming/reorg which happened to drivers/net recently. This means that I
now appear to be in the top few commit signers (by %age) for many of them
so am getting sent all sorts of stuff and people who are involved with the
driver are not. e.g. (to pick one at random):
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c
"David S. Miller" <[email protected]> (commit_signer:5/7=71%)
Ian Campbell <[email protected]> (commit_signer:2/7=29%)

Turns out this is an arguable defect in the script.
The MAINTAINERS entry for mm is:
MEMORY MANAGEMENT
L: [email protected]
W: http://www.linux-mm.org
S: Maintained
F: include/linux/mm.h
F: mm/
There's a maintainer entry, but no named individual, so the script doesn't
use git history via --git-fallback.
This is also a defect for MAINTAINERS with status entries marked "Orphan"
or "Odd fixes".
The script now checks a section for any "M:" entry and that an "S:" entry
is supported or maintained. If both those conditions are not satisified,
use --git-fallback as appropriate.

Adding commit signers when there is a listed MAINTAINER for a file
can make the output list longer than necessary.
Change the --git default from on to off.
Add a new --git-fallback option (default on) used to add commit signers
only when there is no MAINTAINER for a file.
git history is used when --git-fallback is enabled and the pattern
directory depth is not the same as the file directory depth.
For instance:
X86 ARCHITECTURE (32-BIT AND 64-BIT)
M: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]>
M: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
M: "H. Peter Anvin" <[email protected]>
M: [email protected]
T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git
S: Maintained
F: Documentation/x86/
F: arch/x86/
If using "./scripts/get_maintainer -f arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c", the pattern
for "arch/x86/" does not match the directory depth of "arch/x86/lib"
so the MAINTAINERS entries and git history is used to produce:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f --rolestats arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c
Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> (maintainer:X86 ARCHITECTURE...)
Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> (maintainer:X86 ARCHITECTURE...)
"H. Peter Anvin" <[email protected]> (maintainer:X86 ARCHITECTURE...,commit_signer:1/1=100%)
[email protected] (maintainer:X86 ARCHITECTURE...)
Luca Barbieri <[email protected]> (commit_signer:1/1=100%)
[email protected] (open list)
Luca Barbieri is added because he signed the only commit to
arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c during the last year and he meets the
other default qualifications.
--git-min-percent (default:10)
--git-min-signatures (default:1)
If current users of ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl have scripts
that use --nogit that expect git history to be excluded, those
scripts should be updated to include --nogit-fallback or a
.get_maintainer.conf file should be created with --nogit-fallback.

information
When options --git-blame and --rolestats are specified, add
the maintainers with the qualifying --git-min-percent amount
of lines authored of the complete file. Does not add more
authors than specified by --git-max-maintainers.
For anyone using hg, this option works but is _very_ slow.
It's orders of magnitude slower than git slow.
The get_maintainer.pl version was incremented to 0.25.
This can be used with or without --git.

This changes the default of the option --git-all-signature-types to be
disabled by default.
The effect being, that only certain (currently Signed-Off-By:, Acked-by:
and Reviewed-By:) tags are used to get adresses of potential maintainers.
Motivated is this change by the desire to not 'spam' people unnecessary: A
Tested-By or a Reported-By is not ment as a hint that those people want
to/are able to review patches to the code in question.
In a quest to find resilient statistics for this i came up with this:
I produced a list of all the tag-signers not already covered with a
signed-off/acked/reviewed tag somewhere in the last year of git history.
Those were 650 addresses of "assumed non-developers".
And to check if those "assumed non-developers" are professional
testers/reporters worth cc'ing, i then counted their total appearences
in the git log:
469 were mentioned only once.
123 were mentioned twice.
38 three times
8 four times
5 six times
5 five times
1 eight times
1 fourteen times
I believe this supports my thesis, that the ''non-maintainer-tags'' are
not actively useful for patch-review. (except probably the guy mentioned
fourteen times...)
But of course one could also find arguments to poke holes in this
statistics, for example does this statistic not include code-locality: A
tested-by on a patch that touches some specific piece of code can be more
worth than a signed-off in another part of the tree.
But... let's play it safe and let's err on the "safe" side meaning to not
spam those people when in doubt. We already have the signed-off's and
Maintainers file. So this should be ok. And if need be, the maintainers

Allow the use of a .get_maintainer.conf file to control the default
options applied when scripts/get_maintainer.pl is run.
.get_maintainer.conf can contain any valid command-line argument.
File contents are prepended to any additional command line arguments.
Multiple lines may be used, blank lines ignored, # is a comment.
Updated scripts/get_maintainer.pl version to 0.24

When using --git to determine who to send a patch to, get_maintainers will
currently include all signatures. This can include signers that simply
report an issue or test a patch. Signers that use this tag are not
necessarily good candidates to review new patches.
This patch allows get_maintainers to optionally restrict output to only
signatures that use Signed-off-by:, Acked-by:, or Reviewed-by:.
Signed-off-by: is included because those are people who are responsible
for the code.
Acked-by: is questionable, but as signers that use this tag tend to be
active linux gatekeepers, false positives are tolerable.
Reviewed-by: is included because signers responsible for the code thought
that the review feedback for a changeset by that signer was valuable.
This patch has been modified from Florian's original submission to change
the supported signature types to the canonical forms and use slightly
different spacing. A couple of spacing issues were also corrected in the
original source. The command line argument was also renamed.

Commit 22dd5b0cba50a197aaa3bd2790a29ee2e8e4e372 (fix perlcritic warnings)
broke the ability to handle STDIN because the three argument version of
open() cannot handle standard IO-streams (which is mentioned in
PerlBestPractices, too).

If MAINTAINERS section entries are misformatted, it was possible to have
an infinite loop.
Correct the defect by always moving the index to the end of section + 1
Also, exit check for exclude as soon as possible.

perlcritic is a standard checker for Perl Best Practices. This patch
fixes most of the warnings in the get_maintainer script. If kernel
programmers are going to have checkpatch they should write clean scripts
as well...

Add an imperfect option to search a source file for email addresses.
New option: --file-emails or --fe
email addresses in files are freeform text and are nearly impossible to
parse. Still, might as well try to do a somewhat acceptable job of
finding them. This code should find all addresses that are in the form
[email protected]
The code assumes that up to 3 alphabetic words along with dashes, commas,
and periods that preceed the email address are a name.
If 3 words are found for the name, and one of the first two words are a
single letter and period, or just a single letter then the 3 words are use
as name otherwise the last 2 words are used.
Some variants that are shown correctly:
John Smith <[email protected]>
Random J. Developer <[email protected]>
Random J. Developer ([email protected])
J. Random Developer [email protected]
Variants that are shown nominally correctly:
Written by First Last ([email protected])
is shown as:
First Last <[email protected]>
Variants that are shown incorrectly:
Some Really Long Name <[email protected]>
MontaVista Software, Inc. <[email protected]>
are returned as:
Long Name <[email protected]>
"Software, Inc" <[email protected]>
--roles and --rolestats show "(in file)" for matches.
For instance:
Without -file-emails:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c
David S. Miller <[email protected]> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL])
[email protected] (open list)
With -fe:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f -fe -nogit -roles net/core/netpoll.c
David S. Miller <[email protected]> (maintainer:NETWORKING [GENERAL])
Matt Mackall <[email protected]> (in file)
Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> (in file)
[email protected] (open list)
[email protected] (open list:NETWORKING [GENERAL])
The number of email addresses in the file in not limited. Neither is the
number of returned email addresses.

When git has been set to always use color in .gitconfig then I get the
warning message
Bad divisor in main::vcs_assign: 0
This is caused by vcs_file_signoffs not matching any commits due to the
pattern not understand the colour codes. Fix this by telling git log to
never use colour.

The following command doesn't generate any output.
`./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-git -f drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/wl1271_acx.c`
An excluded "X:" pattern match in any section would cause a file not to
match any other section.
