git-pull: add the new create-pull-request script The previous create-pull-request only generated a cover letter. When used to send to the list, it did not include the patches, which made it difficult to perform peer review. A pull request without patches is typically only sent by a maintainer. As we are not all maintainers, we need a means to easily submit patches for review. As we are accustomed to making pull requests, this script retains a git-pull-style cover letter, while sending the relevant patches as responses to the pull. This will provide the necessary context for peer review, and still allow people to collapse threads and see no more mail than they were previously. This version retains the relative_to, commit_id, and contrib_branch arguments from the original, along with their default values. It adds several more, resulting in a highly flexible tool. The script creates a pull directory (pull-$$ by default, configurable via the -o option) and populates it with a git-format-patch generated patch series and cover letter. The cover letter is modified to include the git and http pull URLs and branch name, as well as a basic signature from the author pulled from git's user.name and user.email config. git-format-patch provides the shortlog and diffstat of the series. Breaking a bit from the original, this script maintains the [PATCH] subject prefix in the cover letter (as opposed to [GIT PULL]. This is better suited to the majority of developers (who are not maintainers). This prefix is configurable with the -p option, allowing you to create an [RFC PATCH] prefix, for example. By default, the generated cover letter with contain "*** SUBJECT HERE ***" and "*** BLURB HERE ***" tokens which you should replace with something appropriate prior to sending the messages. When developing multiple versions of a patch series, it can save time to maintain a message.txt file, rather than having to retype the message body of the cover letter every time. The -m option allows you to specify a message file and replace the "*** BLURB HERE ***" token of the cover letter with the contents of the message file. Finally, the -s option will replace the "*** SUBJECT HERE ***" token in the cover letter with the specified subject. The generated patches are suitable for sending via sendmail.
