That's not how you run it. get_maintainers.pl should be run on patches
or on all files, not just some selection.  

Adding Joe for visibility (I proposed to print a warning when people 
do this and IIRC he wasn't on board).  

What's the issue here?  Other than _how_ the script was used,
I don't see an actual problem with the script itself.

I just CCed you on another case. If people keep using get_maintainers
wrong, it *is* an issue with the script.

I use the scripts below to send patch series where a patch series
are the only files in individual directories.

The fact that most people end up wrapping get_maintainers in another
script is also a pretty strong indication that the user experience is
inadequate.

To be clear - I'm happy to put in the work to make the changes.
It's just that from past experience you seem to have strong opinions
which run counter to maintainers' needs, and I don't really enjoy
writing Perl for the sake of it.
