From 13f1937ef33950b1112049972249e6191b82e6c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Perches Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2014 16:10:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: emit a warning on file add/move/delete Whenever files are added, moved, or deleted, the MAINTAINERS file patterns can be out of sync or outdated. To try to keep MAINTAINERS more up-to-date, add a one-time warning whenever a patch does any of those.
