trailers: retrieving code-review trailers ========================================= This commands allows you to easily retrieve code-review trailers sent in reply to your work and apply them to the matching commits. It should locate code-review trailers sent in response to any previously submitted versions of your series, as long as: * either the patch-id of the commit still matches what was sent, or * the title of the commit is exactly the same You can always edit the trailers after they are applied by using ``git rebase -i`` and choosing ``reword`` as rebase action. Most commonly, you just need to run:: b4 trailers -u Command flags ------------- ``-u, --update`` Update branch commits with latest received trailers. ``-S, --sloppy-trailers`` Accept trailers where the email address of the sender differs from the email address found in the trailer itself. ``-F MSGID, --trailers-from MSGID`` Look for trailer updates in an arbitrary tread found on the public-inbox server. Note, that this is generally only useful in the following two cases: * for branches not already managed by ``b4 prep`` * when a single larger series is broken up into multiple smaller series (or vice-versa) ``--since GITLOGDATE`` Only useful with ``-F``. By default, b4 will only look for your own commits as far as 1 month ago. With this flag, you can instruct it to look further back. ``--since-commit COMMITISH`` Looks at all commits that happened since the specified commit (or tag, or branch HEAD) where you are the committer, and then queries the public-inbox server for matching patch-ids. Pulls in any code-review trailers received for the matching patches.
