A few linux kernel source and git questions: What's the best procedure to handle a tree-wide source tranformation? For instance: git branch foo2bar egrep -r -w --include=*.[ch] -l "foo" * | \ xargs perl -pi -e 's/\bfoo\b/bar/msg' git commit -a -m "use bar not foo" Is there a way to separate the resultant single patch into multiple patches by subdirectory? Perhaps some git-rev-parse option? git-format-patch -p --stat -o outputdir Is there a way to automatically include the appropriate MAINTAINER and mailing lists from the MAINTAINERS file for each subdirectory? git-send-mail --to $APPROPRIATE_MAINTAINER \ -cc linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Any ideas or help? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
