[PATCH 0/4] git-am: use trailers to add extra signatures
From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>

I'm using git am to apply patches, and I like the ability
to add arbitrary trailers instead of the standard Signed-off-by
one.
To this end, I have extended git am to call git interpret-trailers
internally. This way I can add arbitrary signatures.
For example, I have:
[trailer "t"]
key = Tested-by
command = "echo \"Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]\""
[trailer "r"]
key = Reviewed-by
command = "echo \"Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]\""
[trailer "a"]
key = Acked-by
command = "echo \"Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]\""
[trailer "s"]
key = Signed-off-by
command = "echo \"Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]\""
And now:
git am -t t -t r -t s
adds all of:
Tested-by: Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]
Reviewed-by: Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]
Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin [off-list ref]
This was originally suggested by Junio (a long time ago).
Documentation and tests are still TBD.
Michael S. Tsirkin (4):
builtin/interpret-trailers.c: allow -t
builtin/interpret-trailers: suppress blank line
builtin/am: read mailinfo from file
builtin/am: passthrough -t and --trailer flags
