From 67f8f1e7aa31b6fe17aeee1c581f61fc3dfa331a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leonardo Bras <leobras@redhat.com> Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2023 19:13:36 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] scripts: Introduce a default git.orderFile When reviewing patches, it looks much nicer to have some changes shown before others, which allow better understanding of the patch before the the .c files reviewing. Introduce a default git.orderFile, in order to help developers getting the best ordering easier.
