Summary
Previously
checkpatch.sh
was usinggit show
instead ofgit diff
. The issue with this is we get a list of all the changes from all the commits, this breaks the CI check because it will look for those files in the final result of the patch (which might include a file that got renamed and then edited). We only want to look a the final changes which is what we get fromdiff
.We also simplify the computing of the commit range.
Impact
Style checks should be more robust now.
Testing
Local testing and this should be validated by the CI run.
