Subject[PATCH] get_maintainers.pl: Follow renames when looking up commit signers
From
Date
I happen to have had a commit to various network drivers since the big
renaming/reorg which happened to drivers/net recently. This means that I
now appear to be in the top few commit signers (by %age) for many of
them so am getting sent all sorts of stuff and people who are involved
with the driver are not. e.g. (to pick one at random):

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c
"David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net> (commit_signer:5/7=71%)
Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> (commit_signer:2/7=29%)
Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> (commit_signer:1/7=14%)
Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (commit_signer:1/7=14%)
Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> (commit_signer:1/7=14%)
netdev@vger.kernel.org (open list:NETWORKING DRIVERS)
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

With the following patch the renames are followed and the result appears
much more sensible:

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/ethernet/nvidia/forcedeth.c
"David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net> (commit_signer:31/34=91%)
Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> (commit_signer:11/34=32%)
Szymon Janc <szymon@janc.net.pl> (commit_signer:5/34=15%)
Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> (commit_signer:3/34=9%)
Paul <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> (commit_signer:2/34=6%)
netdev@vger.kernel.org (open list:NETWORKING DRIVERS)
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)
