2022-06-27Remove "b4 attest" subcommandKonstantin Ryabitsev
We've deprecated "b4 attest" two versions ago, so remove it completely now. Everyone should use "patatt attest" instead. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2022-06-17Add ability to exit before git-merge is invokedKonstantin Ryabitsev
It may be useful for the maintainer to review b4 retrieval/validation output before git-merge is invoked, so add a pause requiring an Enter or Ctrl-C. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2022-06-16Implement "b4 shazam -M" that execs git-mergeKonstantin Ryabitsev
In addition to just being able to fetch a series into FETCH_HEAD, also add an option to exec git-merge automatically so that people don't have to cut-and-paste the merge command to use with paths to the cover letter. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2022-06-16Add a note about proxying requestsKonstantin Ryabitsev
Proxying requests is possible via the HTTPS_PROXY env variable, so make a note of that in the manpage. Suggested-by: David Vernet <void@manifault.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/tools/20220218153128.914071-1-void@manifault.com Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2022-06-16Allow breaking threads using --no-parentKonstantin Ryabitsev
It is a common request to be able to get a partial thread in case someone submitted an auxiliary standalone patch in the middle of a larger patch series. Passing the msgid of the start of the thread along with --no-parent should tell b4 to break the thread at the start of the message-id specified and only consider that message and its children. Suggested-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/tools/YpTI9lhCfA7shi6j@sirena.org.uk/ Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2022-03-30Add support for mailmap and excluding mail in b4-tyKonstantin Ryabitsev
With codeaurora.org accounts no longer accepting mail, add support to exclude addresses when generating b4-ty mail. Additionally, support mailmap replacements by running every address through "git check-mailmap". Requested-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-10-20ty: document flag changesKonstantin Ryabitsev
We've replaced "b4 ty -s" with "b4 ty -t" to better disambiguate it from "b4 -S" which does the actual mail sending. This commit documents this change, plus adds -S,--send-email and --dry-run flags. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-09-30shazam: document template usage in manpageKonstantin Ryabitsev
The flags and functionality of shazam may still change, so not documenting the rest of the usage yet. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-09-01Up version to 0.8.0 and prep for relasev0.8.0Konstantin Ryabitsev
New version of lore.kernel.org is live today, so release the version of b4 that works best with it. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-08-18Document listid-preference config parameterKonstantin Ryabitsev
When we query /all/, we often get duplicates if a message was crossposted to multiple lists and some of those lists altered the message subject/body (e.g. legacy mailman, groups.io, etc). The listid-preference parameter allows us to dedupe based on lists that are least likely to mangle the messages. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-05-26Add new b4 pr flagsKonstantin Ryabitsev
The -f and -l flags are mostly used for archival purposes -- they allow to convert a pull request into a mini-archive which includes relevant discussions around all of the commits involved in it. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-05-21Move --show-keys into its own kr subcommandKonstantin Ryabitsev
There will be more keyring operations supported in the future, probably, but for now just move the --show-keys subcommand from "mbox" to "kr". Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-05-18Document save-maildirs and -M optionsKonstantin Ryabitsev
Update the manpage to record the new flags. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2021-05-11Reimplement attestation-staleness-daysKonstantin Ryabitsev
Looks like we lost this feature in the rewrite, so reimplement it again. This commit also removes obsolete configuration options and sets the default attestation check level at "softfail". Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-12-21Add -f to "b4 mbox" to filter dupesKonstantin Ryabitsev
When saving to a maildir, add option to filter out dupes. Note, that this requires going through the entire maildir to collect message-ids, so it's not going to be a great experience on large maildirs. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-11-30man: Drop apostrophe from midmask valueKyle Meyer
55913ca (man: Drop the apostrophe from the linkmask configuration, 2020-06-25) removed a spurious apostrophe in the linkmask value. Do the same for the midmask value. Signed-off-by: Kyle Meyer <kyle@kyleam.com>
2020-11-24Add --cc-trailers option to b4 amKonstantin Ryabitsev
By request, add ability to copy all addresses from the email's "Cc" header into Cc: trailers, unless they are already mentioned in some other trailer. Requested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-11-20Add attestation-check-dkim config optionKonstantin Ryabitsev
Make it possible to turn off dkim verification entirely, but leave other attestation modes enabled. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-11-17Add pointers to https://linux.kernel.org/g/toolsPhilippe Blain
Add links to the Groups.io instance at https://linux.kernel.org/g/tools in the man page, the README and on PyPI. Signed-off-by: Philippe Blain <levraiphilippeblain@gmail.com>
2020-09-09Preserve trailer order by defaultKonstantin Ryabitsev
Per discussion on the users list, preserve the trailer order by default. There is no agreement on whether this is a hard requirement for patches or not, but there is general consensus that the default should be to make as few changes to incoming patches as possible. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-07-07man: Update commit url mask to contain 12 chars of IDTudor Ambarus
Use 12 characters for the commit ID, similar to what git log --oneline uses. 10 chars of ID is sometimes not enough and git.kernel.org returns "Bad object ID". Example: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mtd/linux.git/commit/?id=482dcb2a04 Signed-off-by: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus@microchip.com> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-06-26man: Drop the apostrophe from the linkmask configurationTudor Ambarus
An apostrophe was added at the end of each generated link. Drop it. Signed-off-by: Tudor Ambarus <tudor.ambarus@microchip.com> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-05-28Add --no-cover and -o - to output to stdoutKonstantin Ryabitsev
By request, provide a way to output the results of b4 am to stdout. This way it can be piped straight to "git am". E.g.: b4 diff 20200526205322.23465-1-mic@digikod.net -o - | git am Requested-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-05-25Add -3 to "b4 am" to prep for a 3way mergeKonstantin Ryabitsev
The original code used for b4 diff was to prepare for a 3-way merge by making sure that all blob indexes exist in the local repo. Add this functionality to "b4 am" and document all the features added in the 0.5.0 branch. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-05-15Document changes to -PKonstantin Ryabitsev
Add changes to -P,--cherry-pick to the man page. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-05-08Update documentation for am -P, ty -s/-d changesKonstantin Ryabitsev
- we are now using ranges for ty -s/-d - add am -P documentation for cherry-picking subsets of patches Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-04-10Document b4 ty and add template examplesKonstantin Ryabitsev
Still a bit slim on documentation, but this is better than nothing. I need to write a better README file that will introduce maintainers to most useful functionality aspects of b4. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>

2020-03-20Add caching layerKonstantin Ryabitsev
Many lore.kernel.org operations can be repeated within quick succession of each-other (e.g. someone reruns a query with -t). This commit adds a caching layer that keeps lookups in local cache for 10 minutes (default). It can be made longer or shorter by editing the 'cache-expire' setting, or running "b4 am" with -C,--no-cache. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
2020-03-18Check the age of attestationv0.3.3Konstantin Ryabitsev
If attestation is over 30 days older than the patch, then we refuse to accept it. This can be changed in configuration parameters by setting 'attestation-staleness-days' to a higher/lower value. Signed-off-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
