How to request a new project on patchwork

Patchwork is a tool to help track patches sent to a mailing list, to make sure they are not lost in the traffic or otherwise overlooked.

To get a new project added to patchwork, please send an email request to support with the following info:

  1. The website with the details about the mailing list (e.g. mailman listinfo page)
  2. The patchwork.kernel.org username of the person (or persons) who will be the project admin in patchwork. If you don't have a username yet, please create one on patchwork.kernel.org.
  3. Patchwork-bot integration details, if desired (see below)

Adding patchwork-bot integration

If you have your git tree on git.kernel.org, you can send a request to support to request patchwork-bot integration. Please provide all of the following info as part of your request:

  1. Refname:state map: (e.g. refs/heads/next:Accepted, refs/heads/master:Mainlined)
  2. Summary to: (e.g. example@kernel.org, example@gmail.com)
  3. Notify submitters?: (yes/no)

If you choose to notify submitters, it would send them a summary email per all patches applied within one session, e.g.:

Subject: Your patches were applied to shuah/linux-kselftest.git
From: patchwork-bot@kernel.org
To: Submitter Name <submitter@kernel.org>

This way, if you are applying a series of 50 patches from the same person, the submitter will only receive a single notification email (as long as you push them in one batch).
