Hi all,
is there a guideline or manual how to send a patch to the qemu mailing
list? It seems as if this can be done somehow automagically using the
local git repository, but I didn't find a tool to do that.
Thanks!
Best regards,
Erik
Hi Erik,
if you use git for sending, you don't risk that your mailer destroys the
format of your patch.
I usually use these commands to send a single patch from the QEMU source
directory:
# Create the patch file (name depends on the subject line of your
patch).
git format-patch HEAD^
# Check the patch (fix any issues which were found).
scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-*
# Get the maintainer who is responsible (there is not always one).
scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-*
# Send the patch.
git send-email --to address@hidden --to "n.n
<address@hidden>" 0001-*
Please read also http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch.
Regards,
Stefan W.
