[edk2-devel] [PATCH 0/3] add GetMaintainer.py helper script

[Leif Lindholm]

Laszlo, Hao - I have prepared a set for pushing as below.

(Reviewed-by: Leif Lindholm <leif.lindholm at linaro.org> for all of your
patches.)
*But*, I need a review from  Bob and/or Liming before I push the final one:
"BaseTools: add GetMaintainer.py script" -
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/43666

I have verified reviews/acks by all affected reviewers, except for Stefan
Berger for Ovmf TCG/TPM2.
While I would prefer to have that too, this is a file format shift - not a
change in responsibility areas.
Laszlo, do you agree?
If so, I can push 1-7/8 as is.

/
    Leif

Hao A Wu (1):
  Maintainers.txt: Fine-grained review ownership for MdeModulePkg

  Maintainers.txt: split out section "ArmVirtPkg: modules used on Xen"
  Maintainers.txt: split out section "OvmfPkg: Xen-related modules"
  Maintainers.txt: split out section "OvmfPkg: TCG- and TPM2-related
    modules"
  Maintainers.txt: split out section "OvmfPkg: CSM modules"

Leif Lindholm (3):
  Maintainers.txt: update for filesystem area descriptions
