I hacked git-request-pull to include a list of people who reviewed or tested patches. The patch is quite a hack, though. As it works for me(tm) nonetheless, I finally set up a repo where I will put such snippets which help me in maintaining my subsystem. And I started the latest version of said patch a minute ago. So, if other people are interested, it should be more accessible now: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/snippets.git To get you an idea, here is some example output. More details can be found in the patch description itself: === standard pull-request The following changes since commit a121103c922847ba5010819a3f250f1f7fc84ab8: ...
