Having the abbreviated hash in the email makes sense, but at the start of the subject is just noise and a waste of space, IMO. I like the [REVIEW] idea, and don't see any need for "openocd" to be a string in the subject at all. There are headers for sorting and the To: and From: make it pretty clear what project the patch is for. So "[Openocd-development] New openocd patch: hash123 subsys: desc" I would reduce to "[REVIEW] subsys: desc" Much faster to get what I need for an eyeball scan, which is what I use Subject: for. -- Jon Povey jon.po...@racelogic.co.uk Racelogic is a limited company registered in England.
