Do you often need to check if a patch was merged to #Linux #kernel and which version is showed up in? Or check through which tree a particular patch was merged? I have to do this and a few other things all the time, hence I developed a script to make these tasks a little easier for me: #linuxscru, the #LinuxKernel scrutiny tool – https://gitlab.com/knurd42/kernel-scripts/-/blob/master/linuxscru/linuxscru?ref_type=heads Right now it's tailored for my needs and my setup; but that could change if other people show an interest in it. https://gitlab.com/knurd42/kernel-scripts/-/blob/master/linuxscru/README.md?ref_type=heads https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/111/186/331/916/244/340/original/cc5093ea7abe84fa.png

@c6fcef92 Cool, here's a horrible hack of a "implement a database in a filesystem tree" that I use for the stable development work I do for this same problem (and others like it): https://git.sr.ht/~gregkh/linux-stable_commit_tree

@c6fcef92 Let's debug by this horrible interface! $ ./linuxscru history Makefile Traceback (most recent call last): File "/mnt/fast_t2/linux/gregkh/./linuxscru", line 526, in <module> cmdargs.func(cmdargs) File "/mnt/fast_t2/linux/gregkh/./linuxscru", line 376, in cmd_history if not GITTREE.is_file(cmdargs.patterns): ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/mnt/fast_t2/linux/gregkh/./linuxscru", line 251, in is_file if GITTREE.gitpyrepo.git.rev_list('-1', GITTREE.remotes['mainline'][0], '--', pattern): ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 739, in <lambda> return lambda *args, **kwargs: self._call_process(name, *args, **kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 1315, in _call_process return self.execute(call, **exec_kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/git/cmd.py", line 1110, in execute raise GitCommandError(redacted_command, status, stderr_value, stdout_value) git.exc.GitCommandError: Cmd('git') failed due to: exit code(128) cmdline: git rev-list -1 mainline/master -- Makefile stderr: 'fatal: bad revision 'mainline/master''
