So this is the format for the first patch? base commit: 0233b800c838ddda41db318ee396320b3c21a560 Can we change it to include the name of the public tree we are starting from? applies-to: 0233b800c838 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git#master Of course, my absolute prefered format would be: applies-to: net-next 0233b800c838 I don't think that's possible though? I often write that sort of a line in my emails to Dave already. Fengguang was suggesting something like this if we have to include unmerged patches: applies-to: net-next 0233b800c838 private patchset 1 private patchset 2 I don't think git knows what a patchset is. We would have to include the subject line for each unmerged patch. I think we should only do that if there is a cover letter, otherwise the it's too noisy. regards, dan carpenter -- 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
