Please look at thread: [PATCH] [1/2many] - Find the maintainer(s) for a patch - scripts/get_maintainer.pl > In other words, it would be much better to just have per-file markers, > along with some per-subdirectory stuff or similar. Perhaps a single top-level MAINTAINERS subdirectory with 500+ files or MAINTAINERS per subdirectory. Doesn't matter to me. I'd prefer no per-file external markers, nor embedded per-file keywords. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
