Submitting patchesΒΆ

Sparse uses a patch submit process similar to the Linux Kernel Submitting Patches

This document mostly focuses on the parts that might be different from the Linux Kernel submitting process.

  1. Git clone a sparse repository:

     git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/sparse/sparse.git
    
  2. Coding Style remains the same.

  3. Sign off the patch.

    The usage of the Signed-off-by tag is the same as Linux Kernel Sign your work.
