"Link:" and "Closes:" tags have to be used with public URLs.

It is difficult to make sure the link is public but at least we can
verify the tag is followed by 'http(s):'.

With that, we avoid such a tag that is not allowed [1]:

  Closes: <number>

Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/CAHk-=wh0v1EeDV3v8TzK81nDC40=XuTdY2MCr0xy3m3FiBV3+Q@mail.gmail.com/ (local) [1]

I must be missing something here, but it looks to me like this is
checked twice now. See this line in patch2 (which is changed there, but
the check itself remains):

quoted

} elsif ($rawlines[$linenr] !~ m{^link:\s*https?://}i) {

If I'm not mistaken, we had the following checks:

- after Reported-by, there is a link tag (Link:|Closes:)

- (link tags can take more than 75 chars)
- tags followed by "http(s)://" are restricted to link ones

Then not: link tags (Link:|Closes:) are followed by "http(s):".

Not in general, afaics -- and ensuring that is likely wise, so thx for
this. But for Link: and Closes: tags after a Reported-by it is already
checked, that's what I meant (and didn't communicate well, sorry). It's
just a detail, but might be wise to do this in patch 4:

- } elsif ($rawlines[$linenr] !~ m{^$link_tags_search\s*https?://}i) {
+ } elsif ($rawlines[$linenr] !~ m{^$link_tags_search}i) {

(that's a line changed in patch2)

OK thank you. Sorry I didn't get that. Indeed, it should be enough to
just check for the tags, not for the "http(s)://" part.

Cheers,
Matt
