             Summary: Script to help you adhere to the patch-naming guidelines
                 Key: HBASE-12249
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12249
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation, scripts
            Reporter: Misty Stanley-Jones
            Assignee: Misty Stanley-Jones
            Priority: Minor


I wrote a script to help me name patches correctly, and it may be helpful to 
others. You use it from the branch where you are working, and it looks in your 
patches directory to see if other versions of the patch exist, and appends 
-v<latest+1> if so. If you specify -a, it creates an addendum patch, by 
appending -v<latest>-addendum. 

In summary, it makes patches named like:
HBASE-XXXX.patch
HBASE-XXXX-vY.patch
HBASE-XXXX-addendum.patch
HBASE-XXXX-vY-addendum.patch

The patch uses git diff, and does not use --no-prefix. It does not use git 
format-patch because it's too hard to programmatically squash commits and 
reword commit messages.
