First of all, thank you for adding any automation which improves the lives of
the maintainers. Aditya has been working on that for the ath.git tree as well.
ath.git contains both ath-current and ath-next branches in the same tree:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ath/ath.git/log/?h=ath-current
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ath/ath.git/log/?h=ath-next
So we can use:
[PATCH ath] for current (this branch gets little use)
[PATCH ath-next] for next
if that helps your automation.
And for Qualcomm contributions we've been asking the developers to always
supply a base: hash to also denote the basis of a patchset.
