It is really simple, so simple, that I was always surprised how people can make their life difficult with some complicated process to send patches... and then obviously skip some maintainers, because of that process. I almost always feed git send-email with addresses from scripts/get_maintainers.pl. This tool would not bring any benefits to my simple workflow. For newcomers, OTOH, I would either recommend simple workflow or just use b4. Why? Because if you cannot use git-send-email, then it means your email setup will make your life difficult and adding maintainers to existing patch won't help you. 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. Best regards, Krzysztof
