Well it's up to you or anyone reporting the bisection result.
Base on my personal experience, I always got very quick replies
when doing this.

I don't see your point about copying more information though, I
would just open the mbox in my mail client to reply and paste the
content of the bisection report.  With a bit more work this could
be fully automated but that should be part of the bisection
rework using the new API & pipeline so sometime later in 2023...

In the past month, there were 15 bisection reports on renesas, 7
on linux-next and 28 on mainline for a total of 79 so 29 in other
trees.  So it's true renesas is getting quite a lot of them, it's
not entirely clear to me why that's the case but it's worth
investigating a bit.

See my other email about "kci_bisect get_recipients".

Thanks,
Guillaume
