Description Paul Eggleton 2016-08-03 23:05:32 UTC 
Occasionally people send patches produced by the Automatic Upgrade Helper and forget to recommit and change the author i.e. "Upgrade Helper <uh@not.set>" (or "Upgrade Helper <auh@auh.yoctoproject.org>"). We don't want these commits going in so we should add a check for them - I would suggest detecting these solely by email address, and also disallow .*@example.com as well.
