Hi Simon, I suspect there is something wrong with Patman since commit 102061bd (patman: Avoid duplicate sign-offs).
For example, my commit log is like follows sandbox: set sandbox's vendor to null Because sandbox is not a real hardware, setting vendor=sandbox is almost meaningless. This commit sets sandbox's vendor field to '-'. It is a good thing that it decreases one level directory hierarchy. The files board/sandbox/sandbox/* have been moved to board/sandbox/*.
