-Creating commit links to lore.kernel.org
-----------------------------------------
-
-The web site https://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::
-
- $ git config am.messageid true
- $ cat >.git/hooks/applypatch-msg <<'EOF'
- #!/bin/sh
- . git-sh-setup
- perl -pi -e 's|^Message-I[dD]:\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
