This script may break people's "scripts on top of get_maintainer"
if they are using -f... but that's the point.  

Ok, I'll go fix up my local scripts,

Which one? I spotted this in your repo but it already seems
to use patches:

https://github.com/gregkh/gregkh-linux/blob/master/scripts/generate_cc_list

Oh yeah, it does work on patches.  Nevermind, I think I just use the -f
version manually when trying to figure out who to blame for a bug report
in a specific file :)

How do you use this, BTW?

I do:
	- git format-patch to generate the patch series.
	- run the generate_cc_list script which creates XXXX.info files
	  (the XXXX being the patch number) that contain the
	  people/lists to cc: on the patch
	- git rebase -i on the patch series and edit the changelog
	  description and paste in the XXXX.info file for that specific
	  patch.

Yeah, it's a lot of manual steps, I should use b4 for it, one of these
days...

thanks,
