I normally ask for it to be the kernel version (without git) that the patch was generated against, so if there's problems applying it, I can try a bit harder to apply it (such as checking out that version and applying it there, and then merging the result.) It's original purpose was when I was maintaining the 2.4 and 2.5/2.6 kernel trees at the same time - it was critical to know which tree people wanted their patch applied to. Note that the patch system email parser can cope with the tag appearing almost anywhere in the email - either the message header or the body of the email, except intermingling with the patch itself. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
