We don't have any. That doesn't mean that you can't write any and provide them to others :). Signed-off-by is mandatory when sending patches, but I haven't seen a git hook used for that - I simply use commit -s :). > Is there some way to maintain those version change logs I need if I have to > submit my patch v26? I usually put "---" at the end of my patch description and then add a log on the changes between versions. On git am, the lines below --- just disappear, leaving the history for reviews, but not for the actual commit. Alex
