[U-Boot] trouble with patman

hi,
i created some commit which i want to post into the mailing list usind patman.py.
I get following error, where i've no idea about the root cause ...
~/work/u-boot $ tools/patman/patman.py -n Cleaned 1 patches Traceback (most recent call last): File "tools/patman/patman.py", line 158, in <module> options.add_maintainers) File "/home/schmelzerh/work/u-boot/tools/patman/series.py", line 222, in MakeCcFile raise_on_error=raise_on_error) File "/home/schmelzerh/work/u-boot/tools/patman/gitutil.py", line 321, in BuildEmailList raw += LookupEmail(item, alias, raise_on_error=raise_on_error) File "/home/schmelzerh/work/u-boot/tools/patman/gitutil.py", line 495, in LookupEmail raise ValueError, msg ValueError: Alias 'gpio' not found
any suggestions ?
many thanks and best regards, Hannes

Do you have a gpio: tag in your patch subject? If so, patman will try to email the patch to the 'gpio' alias. You can use -t to ignore invalid aliases.
any suggestions ?
many thanks and best regards, Hannes
