Subject: [patch] get_maintainer: handle file names beginning with ./
Date: Fri, 8 Jan 2016 13:51:55 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160108105155.GB32195@mwanda> (raw)

The problem is that get_maintainer.pl doesn't work if you have a ./
prefix on the filename.  For example, if you type:

    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/usb/usb-skeleton.c

then the current code only includes LKML and people from the git log, it
doesn't include Greg or the linux-usb list.
