I expect that you are referring to this description N: Files and directories with regex patterns. N: [^a-z]tegra all files whose path contains the word tegra One pattern per line. Multiple N: lines acceptable. scripts/get_maintainer.pl has different behavior for files that match F: pattern and matches of N: patterns. By default, get_maintainer will not look at git log history when an F: pattern match occurs. When an N: match occurs, git log history is used to also notify the people that have git commit signatures. The purpose of this patch was that Soren is aware about changes around xilinx drivers not to sign dma drivers to me + CC him. Also this fragment informing me that something is happening around these drivers and also driver submitter is informed that's why using git log history is at least for me preferred way. Thanks, Michal
