PATCH 1/1 checkpatches: verify in-reply-to header when possible

When using checkpatches.sh locally, verify that there is an In-Reply-To header when the patch is a respin (i.e. v2, v3, etc.). This is currently only enforced by the upstream CI but cannot be verified locally.

This cannot be verified when checking commit ids since --in-reply-to is a git-format-patch option which is not specified by checkpatches.sh when generating temporary files.

Here is an example:

 $ git format-patch -v6 -1 --stdout | devtools/checkpatches.sh
 warning: [PATCH v6] graph: expose node context as pointers
 warning: respins must be --in-reply-to=<[email protected]>.
 0/1 valid patch
 $ git format-patch -v6 -1 --stdout --in-reply-to=foo | \
                     devtools/checkpatches.sh
 1/1 valid patch

Your regex won't work for v10 etc.

Good catch. I'll send a v2.

PATCH v2 1/1 checkpatches: verify in-reply-to header when possible

In reply to Robin Jarry

When using checkpatches.sh locally, verify that there is an In-Reply-To header when the patch is a respin (i.e. v2, v3, etc.). This is currently only enforced by the upstream CI but cannot be verified locally.

This cannot be verified when checking commit ids since --in-reply-to is a git-format-patch option which is not specified by checkpatches.sh when generating temporary files.

Here is an example:

 $ git format-patch -v6 -1 --stdout | devtools/checkpatches.sh
 warning: [PATCH v6] graph: expose node context as pointers
 warning: respins must be --in-reply-to=<[email protected]>.
 0/1 valid patch
 $ git format-patch -v12345 -1 --stdout | devtools/checkpatches.sh
 warning: [PATCH v12345] graph: expose node context as pointers
 warning: respins must be --in-reply-to=<[email protected]>.
 0/1 valid patch
 $ git format-patch -v6 -1 --stdout --in-reply-to=foo | \
                     devtools/checkpatches.sh
 1/1 valid patch

Notes:

    v2: fix check for v1[0-9]+
