maintainers.go: correct handling of globs
maintainers.go does not handle globs as described in MAINTAINERS. Instead of only matching the files inside a directory, it also matches everything below. Also, a glob used in between (`e.g. path/to/*/dir`) could lead to matching many more paths unexpectedly. This is caused by the way paths using globs are converted to regegular expressions for use with gerrit: 1. The script converts all paths with trailing slash to a path with trailing glob. That means, a recursive match on a directory gets converted to match only the files in the directory (at least according to the documentation - if there wasn't 2). Example: `path/to/dir/` becomes `path/to/dir/*` 2. When converting the path to a regex, all globs get converted to prefix matching by replacing the glob by `.*`. Instead of only matching the files in the directory, everything below matches, which is a) not what the documentation states and b) the opposite of what 1. did first. Example: `path/to/dir/*` becomes `^path/to/dir/.*$` In sum, this leads to all sorts of issues. Examples: - `path/*/dir` becomes `^path/.*/dir$` - `path/to/dir/*` becomes `^path/to/dir/.*$` - `path/to/*.c` becomes `^path/to/.*\.c$` This change fixes that behaviour by: - dropping the wrong conversion from 1. above. - fixing glob matching by replacing `*` by `[^/]`. - handling paths with trailing `/` as prefix, as documented. The change was not split because these changes depend on each other and splitting would break recursive matching between the commits. Tests: 1. diffed output before and after is equal (!= the same) 2. manual testing of glob matching Change-Id: I4347a60874e4f07e41bdee43cc312547bea99008 Signed-off-by: Michael Niewöhner <foss@mniewoehner.de> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/52275 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@google.com> Reviewed-by: Nico Huber <nico.h@gmx.de>
