Sean Busbey commented on HADOOP-11910:
--------------------------------------
We're trying to make the patch tester extensible, and not every use will have
the same naming rules. Based on Allen's findings I'm mostly sure this can be
obviated by just using the "detect patch format" ticket and loosening the
strict check to be both .patch and .txt.
> add command line arg to test-patch for the regex to use for evaluating if
> something is a patch file.

> right now before test-patch can be used on a submission it checks if the file
> ends with ".patch". we should make this configurable so that it can be used
> with other projects that might want to be more permissive (i.e. ".patch.txt")
