This script runs get_maintainer.py on a given patch file (or multiple
patch files) and adds its output to the patch file in place with the
appropriate email headers "To: " or "Cc: " as the case may be. These new
headers are added after the "From: " line in the patch.
FWIW, I personally prefer tooling to operate on git branches and commits
than patches. For me, the patches are just an intermediate step in
getting the commits from my git branch to the mailing list. That's not
where I add the Cc's, but rather in the commits in my local branch,
where they're preserved. YMMV.
May I ask how you add/carry the recipients in a commit?
I guess below a "---" line in the commit description?
Does that do anything special in commit log? I'd expect (and I do it that
way) it's rather just adding a

Cc: Name <email>

in the tag area where s-o-b, reviewed-by etc are added.
