>    subsection containing the pattern, and that tree is returned.
>    If no tree was found in that subsection, the script tries to
>    find a tree specified under the name of the section containing
>    the pattern.
>  - If more than one tree was matched (for multiple files),
>    a tree matching the common prefix of all these trees will be
>    returned.
>  - The main repo 'dpdk' will be returned if no other match was found.

> Results can be further improved by adding more information to the

s/v2/v4/
>   - Refactored the script to use classes, which makes it easier
>     to be used inside other scripts.
>   - Renamed the script so that it can be imported.
>   - The script will always return a single tree.
>     If multiple trees were matched (for multiple files),
>     a tree matching the common prefix of all these trees will be
>     returned.
>   - Main repo is now reported if no other matches were found.
>   - Only tree name will be returned without the full url.
>   - Updated description and usage info.
