If cloning git repos is too much work, You can subscribe to an Atom feed of search results to paths or files you're interested in using "dfn:" (diff-file-name) using your favorite feed reader: lore.kernel.org/lkml/?q=dfn:path/to/dir-or-file-youre-interested-in&x=A Or drop the "&x=A" to get an HTML summary, or POST to that URL with "&x=m" to download an mbox. You can also search for multiple files at once by having dfn:foo multiple times separated by "OR" lore.kernel.org/lkml/?q=dfn:foo+OR+dfn:bar&x=A https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/_/text/help/ has other prefixes like "dfn:" which might be helpful for search. For example, if you expected to be Cc-ed (or To-ed) and want to double-check that your mail account got it, you can use the "c:" or "tc:" prefixes with your name or address, too.
