I did not say that, I said I think this is not needed at this point, if you think otherwise, you can go ahead and implement it. I think the patch is perfectly fine as it is, and I'm not going to to add tests for something that is potentially time consuming for me, and this patch is not introducing, that is; the annotate feature. If we survived without tests for annotate, we can survive without tests for sendemail.annotate. -- Felipe Contreras -- 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
