From 790ca8b0b5a343090b148d9c0c1ddb2d1a012952 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2025 11:17:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] scripts/documentation-file-ref-check: don't check perl/python scripts Such scripts may have regular expressions, which would make the parser confusing. Also, they shouldn't hardcode filenames there, so skipping them is OK. While here, also don't check references on extensions used for file backup and patch rej/orig.
