It is nice that git has the short-hand for adding Signed-off-by, but adding other tags during reviews is kind of tedious and long winded. eg "ACK" is much shorter than typing "Reviewed-by: ...blah blah blah.."
Good editors have a way to setup macros though, and so I thought I'd share the emacs approach to making life easy again...
In my $HOME/.emacs.d/abbrev_defs file I have this:
(define-abbrev-table 'global-abbrev-table '( ("8rev" "Reviewed-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>" nil 1) ("8ack" "Acked-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>" nil 1) ("8test" "Tested-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>" nil 1) ("8sob" "Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>" nil 1) ))
Now, if I type the "8rev" [1] and then hit space-bar or enter, emacs expands it to the full "Reviewed-by: ....blah blah blah..." line. This makes adding the full tags just as quick & easy as it was to type a traditional "ACK".
Anyone have an equivalent tip for Vim ?
I'm using the following plugin for Vim which I tuned just a tiny bit so that I could write even less :P.
What does it mean when it says "<Leader>" in that README. Is that a name referring to a magic key sequence, or literal text to type ?
