[RFC PATCH 05/16] patman: Allow skipping patches at the end

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Mon Jul 6 05:41:52 CEST 2020


The -s option allows skipping patches at the top of the branch. Sometimes
there are commits at the bottom that need to be skipped. At present it is
necessary to count the number of commits and then use -c to tell patman
how many to process.

Add a -e option to easily skip a number of commits at the bottom of the
branch.
