I think it can be done better. FYI, this patch came about because I keep complaining about submitters sending me patches I really shouldn't have to care about. Here is the most recent offending command output: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig Wolfram Sang <[email protected]> (maintainer:I2C SUBSYSTEM,commit_signer:26/26=100%,authored:3/26=12%,removed_lines:3/11=27%) Lee Jones <[email protected]> (commit_signer:3/26=12%) Geert Uytterhoeven <[email protected]> (commit_signer:3/26=12%,authored:3/26=12%,removed_lines:2/11=18%) David Box <[email protected]> (commit_signer:3/26=12%,added_lines:11/146=8%) Jean Delvare <[email protected]> (commit_signer:2/26=8%) Javier Martinez Canillas <[email protected]> (authored:2/26=8%,removed_lines:2/11=18%) Neelesh Gupta <[email protected]> (added_lines:11/146=8%) James Hogan <[email protected]> (added_lines:10/146=7%) Ray Jui <[email protected]> (added_lines:10/146=7%) Joachim Eastwood <[email protected]> (added_lines:10/146=7%) Andrew Bresticker <[email protected]> (removed_lines:2/11=18%) Zhangfei Gao <[email protected]> (removed_lines:1/11=9%) [email protected] (open list:I2C SUBSYSTEM) [email protected] (open list) Anyone south of Wolfram and north of the I2C ML is unlikely to care.
