This patch format is somewhat inconvenient: > # HG changeset patch > # User Bryan O'Sullivan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I assume this is the real author of the patch (as opposed to the sender of the email)? git would prefer to see From: Bryan O'Sullivan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the body of the email. > # Date 1173994464 25200 > # Node ID b1d05f3486f8bba1dd3c5cbca39f06a5e1b3d6fb > # Parent 0d37971d4ab0c8b6f7a8f6e8222112321982498f And all of these "#" lines get put into the patch description. > IB/ipath - add ability to set and clear IB local loopback No need to duplicate the subject line. And incidentally, it would be better to use "IB/ipath: " instead of "IB/ipath -" as a prefix, to match the canonical style of "<subsystem>: " for patch headers. Don't worry about resending, I can fix this up, but it would be nice not to have to worry about it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
