Subject: [PATCH] get_maintainers.pl: Avoid THE_REST when files are added or removed
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2018 10:09:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180222090922.GA15449@ts.fujitsu.com> (raw)

When files are added or removed /dev/null is used as a place
holder name in the patch for the absent file.  Don't try and
find a MAINTAINER for this place holder, it only ever flags
and then spams THE REST.

Signed-off-by: Alan Robinson <Alan.Robinson@ts.fujitsu.com>

Tested by pretending to remove xen/common/cpupool.c for
which get_maintainers.pl currently flags 11 addresses, after
this patch only xen-devel and its two maintainers (Juergen and
Dario) get listed...
