[PATCH] checkpatch: Make the output better readable
From: Petr Mladek
Date: Mon Jun 01 2015 - 10:26:00 EST
I always have troubles to parse checkpatch.pl output when I check
the whole patchset. It is hard to say which messages belongs to
what patch.
This patch does few small changes to make the output look better
for me:
+ delimit each patch from each other with dashes and empty line
+ remove empty line after the summary
+ print message about false positives only once
Output without this patch:
