So explain it just in case it's not obvious. 03+04 should be a single patch (as I read more, I may find other steps should also be in a single step, I dunno); otherwise it would waste reviewer's time (just like I did thinking and writing about 03/11). Or just drop "part". "git cat-file commit HEAD | sed -e '1,/^$/d'" is a good material to use with "--no-divider" because it only has the "commit message". The "part" implies you first had something that has both "commit message" and something else and you split that combination into two (or more) parts. But that does not have to be the case. I think that made 03/11 confusing, at least to me. > Signed-off-by: Linus Arver <linusa@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > Documentation/git-interpret-trailers.txt | 6 +++--- > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/git-interpret-trailers.txt b/Documentation/git-interpret-trailers.txt > index 3e60a6eaabc..7d6e250f37e 100644 > --- a/Documentation/git-interpret-trailers.txt > +++ b/Documentation/git-interpret-trailers.txt > @@ -22,9 +22,9 @@ This command reads some patches or commit messages from either the > <file> arguments or the standard input if no <file> is specified.
