It seems to me that commit messages are much more likely to mention the sorts of details that are affected by review than cover letters are. Furthermore, if the message is coming out of a tag on the head of the series, whatever is used to put the tag onto the new head of the series would present the buffer for editting again, just like commit --amend does. So the user would be just as likely to think to update a series header as a commit message, and less likely to need to. -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* - 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
