Hi,
I just came across stgit and am now trying to understand it a little bit.
It really looks like the perfect solution to my problem of posting
patches to mailing lists and then waiting for quite some time before
getting some feedback. Then I have to make changes, refactor, rebase and
so on.
While I appreciate the features described in the tutorial, I was
wondering if the few missing pieces in this whole process could be taken
care of somehow: cover letters, revision changes and recipient lists.
This kind of information is intimately related to a patch series, though
it's not stored within the GIT repo, and you more-or-less have to dig to
find (perhaps from your inbox or from a local copy of the messages you
sent) and re-type this stuff every time you resubmit.
I find this very, very frustrating.
I would really love to be able to store this kind of information within
my git repo, so that every time I make a change as a result of external
feedback, I can simply JUST EDIT the cover letter, the commit messages
and the associated metadata (like revision history).
Then I only have to type ONE command to re-submit.
Am I dreaming? Am I the only one with this problem? Or am I in the wrong
room?
I am more than willing to implement this myself, if someone just points
me in the right direction.
Thank you!
Gerlando
