Subject: patman: Add a -m option to avoid copying the maintainers
X-Git-Tag: KARO-TXA5-2015-06-26~641^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.kernelconcepts.de/?p=karo-tx-uboot.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=983a2749e2fdc459b2f44e82241a5c314ddbcdf6

patman: Add a -m option to avoid copying the maintainers

The get_maintainers script is a useful default, but sometimes is copies
too many people, or takes a long time to run.

Add an option to disable it and update the README.
