If I want to add ten patches to a bundle or whatever, it would be great if I could click the first patch and then shift-click the last patch to select the entire range. IIRC jquery has a simple plugin for this, if that's how patchwork UI is built.
The jquery.tablecheckbox.js plugin provides the requested functionality, so it is added and called from the patches lists. A specific function was added to the series view to provide same functionality. These changes can be seen at https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-February/034838.html https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-February/034839.html https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2017-February/034840.html and are tested at the staging instance: https://patchwork-staging.openembedded.org/
These changes are implemented in OE-patchwork https://patchwork.openembedded.org/
