This guide explains what to do to send a GCC patch for review. | ||
|
||
All the commands are supposed to be run in the folder where you cloned GCC. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
./contrib/gcc-changelog/git_check_commit.py | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You can provide a specific commit hash: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
./contrib/gcc-changelog/git_check_commit.py abdef78989 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
a range: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
./contrib/gcc-changelog/git_check_commit.py HEAD~2 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
or even a comparison with a remote branch: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
./contrib/gcc-changelog/git_check_commit.py upstream/master..HEAD | ||
``` | ||
|
||
When there is no more errors, generate the git patch: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
git format-patch -1 `git rev-parse --short HEAD` | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Then you can run the remaining checks using: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
contrib/check_GNU_style.sh 0001-your-patch.patch | ||
``` | ||
|
||
When you have no more errors, you can send the `.patch` file to GCC by sending an | ||
email to `gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org` and to the relevant GCC mailing lists | ||
depending on what your patch changes. You can find the list of the mailing lists | ||
[here](https://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html). | ||
