This adds Kees' clever apply hook to the kernel documentation so it can be easily references when needed.

Configure Git
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This chapter describes maintainer level git configuration.
|
|
|
|
Tagged branches used in :ref:`Documentation/maintainer/pull-requests.rst
|
|
<pullrequests>` should be signed with the developers public GPG key. Signed
|
|
tags can be created by passing the ``-u`` flag to ``git tag``. However,
|
|
since you would *usually* use the same key for the same project, you can
|
|
set it once with
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
git config user.signingkey "keyname"
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, edit your ``.git/config`` or ``~/.gitconfig`` file by hand:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
[user]
|
|
name = Jane Developer
|
|
email = jd@domain.org
|
|
signingkey = jd@domain.org
|
|
|
|
You may need to tell ``git`` to use ``gpg2``
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
[gpg]
|
|
program = /path/to/gpg2
|
|
|
|
You may also like to tell ``gpg`` which ``tty`` to use (add to your shell rc file)
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
export GPG_TTY=$(tty)
|
|
|

Creating commit links to lore.kernel.org
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The web site http://lore.kernel.org is meant as a grand archive of all mail
|
|
list traffic concerning or influencing the kernel development. Storing archives
|
|
of patches here is a recommended practice, and when a maintainer applies a
|
|
patch to a subsystem tree, it is a good idea to provide a Link: tag with a
|
|
reference back to the lore archive so that people that browse the commit
|
|
history can find related discussions and rationale behind a certain change.
|
|
The link tag will look like this:
|
|
|
|
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id>
|
|
|
|
This can be configured to happen automatically any time you issue ``git am``
|
|
by adding the following hook into your git:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: none
|
|
|
|
$ git config am.messageid true
|
|
$ cat >.git/hooks/applypatch-msg <<'EOF'
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
. git-sh-setup
|
|
perl -pi -e 's|^Message-Id:\s*<?([^>]+)>?$|Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/$1|g;' "$1"
|
|
test -x "$GIT_DIR/hooks/commit-msg" &&
|
|
exec "$GIT_DIR/hooks/commit-msg" ${1+"$@"}
|
|
:
|
|
EOF
|
|
$ chmod a+x .git/hooks/applypatch-msg
|
