Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Add comment about updating Documentation/CodingStyle
Date: Mon, 2 Sep 2013 11:19:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130902181856.GB29787@leaf> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130902181510.GA29787@leaf>
Patches to checkpatch that add new style rules should also change
Documentation/CodingStyle to document those new style rules; add a
comment to that effect to the top of scripts/checkpatch.pl.
