So ... we're changing GitHub URLs from git: to https:, and Gitlab URLs
from https: to git:?

Certainly we want to fix URLs that are broken, but is there any real
reason to churn up the MAINTAINERS file to "fix" URLs that work?

Thanks,

jon

This bypasses the mirror systems in place with the https: protocol,
please do not do this without a lot of justification and agreement of
the hosting providers involved as they will have a large increase in
resources if this were to change.

Have you asked them if this is ok to change?  What is wrong with the
current urls listed here?

thanks,

To be *consistent* with the rest of the entries:

$ grep git.kernel.org MAINTAINERS | sed 's#://#:// #' | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
       1 git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext.git
      22 https://
     380 git://

But if https is preferer, a reverse patch can be done: git -> https

No rationale provided, NAK.
On the other hand, https links are clickable on docs.kernel.org's copy
of the maintainers file.
I'd appreciate being CCed if/when you touch my entries here again.

Cheers,
Conor.

The reason was to be *consistent* with the rest of the entries.
Because most of them(380) are using git:, vs 22 for https:

$ grep git.kernel.org MAINTAINERS | sed 's#://#:// #' | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
       1 git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext.git
      22 https://
     380 git://

But Greg has some concerns about this protocol:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/2025062654-lubricant-lettuce-3405@gregkh/
"This bypasses the mirror systems in place with the https: protocol,
please do not do this without a lot of justification and agreement of
the hosting providers involved as they will have a large increase in
resources if this were to change."

So, the right patch should replace git://git.kernel.org with https://git.kernel.org in all the tree.

Why are we concerned about consistency here?

As you will have observed with your other patch, wholesale changes to a
file like MAINTAINERS lead to merge conflicts.  We can handle those - if
there is a good reason.  I'm not convinced that "consistency" counts as
such.  Let's just let the maintainers present their trees as they wish.

Thanks,

jon
