Do you mean, by "multiple sign-offs", something like this? for (so_list = rev.add_signoff; so_list; so_list = so_list->next) { if (strstr(commit_buffer, so_list->item)) continue; append_to_commit_buffer(so_list->item); } return tail - commit_buffer; > And shouldn't we error out if there is not enough room for a sign-off? I do not think we error out if the commit message is too long either, so... - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
