From d6ccdd678e459fdcfe675a45c76b3f1a75b9a8e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthieu Baerts Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2023 18:23:50 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: check for misuse of the link tags MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit "Link:" and "Closes:" tags have to be used with public URLs. It is difficult to make sure the link is public but at least we can verify the tag is followed by 'http(s)://'. With that, we avoid such a tag that is not allowed [1]: Closes: Now that we check the "link" tags are followed by a URL, we can relax the check linked to "Reported-by being followed by a link tag" to only verify if a "link" tag is present after the "Reported-by" one.
