Oh yes, sorry. Fam, can we update patchew's git config to use git config --global diff.algorithm histogram (equivalently, algorithm = histogram in the .gitconfig) -- that way the patches it runs checkpatch on are more likely to be formatted so that they minimise spurious checkpatch output, I think. thanks -- PMM
