This behaves as I'd expect on git.git, i.e. shows a patch id and the commit id: $ git show 24231e063f0f003f8ffd7b64c7ba6a0baaaa5283 | git patch-id f10c69e0e5b33da206f37bd93639875555ac9b79 24231e063f0f003f8ffd7b64c7ba6a0baaaa5283 But what does this mean, also on git.git: $ git show 7d48e9e6f77d336376c1a554eeff0590f77e1ee1 | git patch-id 4ba8a248731c5fcbd09cacb248d3128e742d1c90 7d48e9e6f77d336376c1a554eeff0590f77e1ee1 d019b35e0b859cdd6907ee170927de1124c0ed6e 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 7d48e9e6f77d336376c1a554eeff0590f77e1ee1 is just one of the commits that results in this output: $ git log --pretty=format:%H -p | git patch-id | grep 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 d019b35e0b859cdd6907ee170927de1124c0ed6e 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 3b23a2a11055aef557369971e825010879a8c4d7 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 d498fbbad6f1374d952925df699da237c3e8f2df 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 b0c930dc1926ffae9cca022797856762fa908be6 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 And on another repository where I'm dealing with this I have a bunch more of them. Why are they there and what do they mean? Maybe it's a bug, or something I can explain in the manual page. -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
