# [PATCH 0/2] Generate saner automatic patch names 3 messages from 2006-11-07 to 2006-11-07. Participants: Karl Hasselström. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/43408 ## Karl Hasselström, 2006-11-07 06:57 Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Generate saner automatic patch names Message-ID: <20061107065710.10728.85618.stgit@localhost> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20061107065710.10728.85618.stgit%40localhost ``` This series fixes some quirks in the automatic patch name generation. In particular, it limits the length of names, and makes sure that all callers generate unique names so that name clashes won't be a problem. -- Karl Hasselström, kha@treskal.com ``` ## Karl Hasselström, 2006-11-07 06:59 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Generate shorter patch names Message-ID: <20061107065925.10728.85759.stgit@localhost> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20061107065925.10728.85759.stgit%40localhost In-Reply-To: <20061107065710.10728.85618.stgit@localhost> ``` From: Karl Hasselström Not all commits are blessed with a really short first-line summary in their commit messages. This means that we shouldn't blindly take the entire first line of the comment, since that sometimes results in truly spectacular patch names. I chose 30 characters as a reasonable value, considering that we don't yet have any tab-completion on patch names. There's probably not much point in making it configurable.

This patch moves that functionality into the autogeneration function itself, so that all its callers can benefit from it (and the user can benefit from uniform behavior from all stgit commands). As an added bonus, this permits the removal of a number of checks that would abort with an error if the automatically generated name was empty.
