Maybe something like: MAINTAINERS: UPDATES TO THIS FILE M: Andrew Morton S: Odd fixes F: MAINTAINERS But then Andrew tried to get me added as a checkpatch maintainer and I demurred, so he'll have to add himself if he wants. Anyway, even without a specific MAINTAINERS maintainer entry, get_maintainers uses git log history and Andrew shows up anyway. $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f MAINTAINERS Andrew Morton (commit_signer:51/331=15%) Mauro Carvalho Chehab (commit_signer:39/331=12%) Joe Perches (commit_signer:25/331=8%) "David S.
