Hello,

recently, I updated my local repository (U-Boot master). Last commit is c693f212c5b0433b3a49a89d87cbff28bf78eb87 now. Previously it has been 4df3578119b043d76b86b50077b06898fc2a4f62 (Date: Wed Dec 18 18:25:42 2019 +0100).

Now I get an "ImportError" if I call patman:

u-boot_master$ ./tools/patman/patman --help
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tools/patman/patman", line 21, in <module>
    from patman import checkpatch
File "/home/stefan/u-boot_master/tools/patman/../patman/checkpatch.py", line 10, in <module>
    from patman import command
File "/home/stefan/u-boot_master/tools/patman/../patman/command.py", line 8, in <module>
    from patman import tools
File "/home/stefan/u-boot_master/tools/patman/../patman/tools.py", line 13, in <module>
    from patman import command
ImportError: cannot import name 'command'

Cause of this 'ImportError' is probably that "from patman import command" has already been done before in checkpatch.py (circular dependency). I think the error has to do with your your commit bf776679a73f3b9eae37aabd2be5754483039cb2 (patman: Move to absolute imports).

My Python version is 3.4.3.
