[LTP] [RFC] linux-git: using whole sha1 hash

[LTP] [RFC] linux-git: using whole sha1 hash

[Petr Vorel]

Hi all,

anything against starting to use whole sha1 hash in linux-git tag? i.e. 40 chars.
It can be shorten by the doc/conf.py script (use whole hash for URL, but shorten
the visible part of <a> tag).

We normally use only 12 chars 091d0d55b286, but some users during rewrite used
[1] really small hash (7 chars) from original test.

Kind regards,
Petr

In metadata.

Instead of:
	.tags = (const struct tst_tag[]) {
		{"linux-git", "091d0d55b286"},
		...

Have:
	.tags = (const struct tst_tag[]) {
		{"linux-git", "091d0d55b286c9340201b4ed4470be87fc568228"},

Kind regards,
Petr

Thanks all to ack (or at least no objection), I'll add the above to my TODO
list, hope to get to it in reasonable time.

Kind regards,
Petr
