From: florian on 7 May 2010 03:10 Using --git to determine who to send a patch to, it is not reasonable to include people that only reported an issue or tested a patch. Thus we restrict the candidates to be the one's listed with Reviewed-By, Signed-Off-By and Acked-By tags. The Acked-By: is questionable also, but as people listed with this tag tend to be active linux gatekeepers, false positives are tolerable.
