Hi Simon,

Best to send to list and cc me.

If you see this:

Quoted 1 line

git send-email

git: 'send-email' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

try:

sudo apt-get install git-email

I don't see any errors. And git send-email is working just fine for me. I'm using it regularly.

Any other idea what might go wrong? Again, the generated patches in the root directory look fine. But nothing is sent.

Thanks,
Stefan

Hi Simon,

finally I started using patman for the first time. The main problem I'm facing right now is, that the patches are not sent at all to the destination (Series-to: ...). I see no message/error/etc at the prompt, that patman even tried to send the patches. Should there be anything like this?

Here the output of my current command:

[stefan at ubuntu-2012 u-boot-tom-rini (a3m071-spl-v4b)]$ ./tools/patman/patman -c12

Or does patman not even try to send, once checkpatch warning/errors are detected?

Any hints really appreciated.

Thanks,
Stefan

That's it. Normally you don't want to send patches that are not chackpatch-clean. If you are sure that problems are irrelevant use -i switch to ignore them.

Thanks Ilya - yes that's the idea. - Simon
