However, I see areas for improvement in the alias: - Subsystem-specific mailing lists, maintainers, reviewers, and other roles are all marked as "To: " sans distinction via the alias whereas `add-maintainer.py` and `b4` both provide marking of lists as "Cc: " which seems aesthetically and semantically more pleasing. - Only `add-maintainer.py` allows for maintainers to be selectively in "To: " and "Cc: " for patches in a series depending on whether they are the maintainers for that particular patch or not. > >> This tool depends on the command line and shell interface of > >> scripts/get_maintainers.pl which is another reason why it might not be a > >> good idea. > > > > Could you please elaborate on why depending on the output of > > `get_maintainer.pl` is a bad idea? It's what everyone uses, no? > > No, because if interface changes you need to update two tools. But `b4 prep --auto-to-cc` also uses `get_maintainer.pl`! Also, in your previous email you said to "just use b4", which also depends on the command line and shell interface of `get_maintainers.pl`. Depending on `get_maintainer.pl` is therefore perfectly okay - there is no need to reinvent it or disregard it for whatever reasons. Thank you.
