Hi,

It’s only tangentially related, no?

I’m not convinced we’d want to advocate for yet another tool.  I feel
like this would make patch submission guidelines even more complex, or
at least look more complex.

Also, how many of the ~40 committers would be able to provide guidance
with patman?  That shouldn’t be the only criterion, but it certainly is
an important one.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
