Expand coverage of stable mailing list
Right now the project only looks at emails from the stable mailing list with subjects starting with "[PATCH]
".
This means various patches are ignored:
- Patch submissions with CC: stable
- Patches from patch series with the format "
[PATCH x/N]
" - Patches that have gone through several revisions with "
[PATCH vN]
" - Patches with branch specific tags like "
[PATCH -net]
" - "
[RESEND PATCH]
" / "[PATCH RESEND]
"
- Patches from patch series with the format "
- Backport requests
- "
[v4.19-stable PATCH]
" - "
Please consider mainline commit <hash> for stable
"
- "
- Stable RC commit reviews, aka "
[PATCH 5.3 xx/NN]
" - Patches from Sasha's automatic selection, aka "
[PATCH AUTOSEL x.y xx/NN]
"
We should expand the coverage to look at some or all of these.
