Git push helper for maintainers to notify stakeholders when patches have been applied.
The script is based on GregKH's maintainer scripts and the tip-bot's emails.
The script requies user-specific configuratin options to be provided.
Options are read from a config file (~/.pushrc). A sample file is provided in
pushrc.sample
.
The Git tree in use is identified by the current working directory. A corresponding configuration section needs to be present in the configuration file (see Required Configuration)
The configparser library is used to parse the configuration file. The general configuration file syntax is:
[<section>]
<key> = <value>
Section user
:
name
: User nameemail
: User email address
Section <tree>
:
url
: Web URL for <tree>
push.py [<options>] <rev_start>
For a full list of options run
push.py --help
