That's awesome, I wasn't aware of that. Any suggestions on a standardized way to say "in this subtree, please provide these arguments to checkpatch.pl"? I can probably stick it in a README file or something, but is there an existing best practice? Thanks. -Alex _______________________________________________ greybus-dev mailing list greybus-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/greybus-dev
