When we give commit log template, we do leave an extra blank line before we start the template material "# Please enter ...", to ease typing, but it is different. The template material does not have to be removed by the end-user, so giving a blank line upfront and starting the editor at that line is a usability improvement, compared to the case where there is none. But this "*** BLURB HERE ***" needs to be removed when the user edits the cover-letter, and I really do not see any reason to have an extra blank line in front of it. Incidentally, I strongly suspect that if you do not have that extra blank line, we would not even need to have the [PATCH 4/5] (which is a slight regression) in the series. So how about this squashed in, with [PATCH 4/5] skipped? builtin-log.c | 2 +- ...tch_--stdout_--cover-letter_-n_initial..master^ | 1 - 2 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-log.c b/builtin-log.c index e26c986..0b348eb 100644 --- a/builtin-log.c +++ b/builtin-log.c @@ -629,7 +629,7 @@ static void make_cover_letter(struct rev_info *rev, const char *origin_sha1, *head_sha1; const char *argv[7]; const char *subject_start = NULL; - const char *body = "*** SUBJECT HERE ***\n\n\n*** BLURB HERE ***\n"; + const char *body = "*** SUBJECT HERE ***\n\n*** BLURB HERE ***\n"; const char *msg; const char *extra_headers = rev->extra_headers; struct strbuf sb; diff --git a/t/t4013/diff.format-patch_--stdout_--cover-letter_-n_initial..master^ b/t/t4013/diff.format-patch_--stdout_--cover-letter_-n_initial..master^ index 311e207..0151453 100644 --- a/t/t4013/diff.format-patch_--stdout_--cover-letter_-n_initial..master^ +++ b/t/t4013/diff.format-patch_--stdout_--cover-letter_-n_initial..master^ @@ -4,7 +4,6 @@ From: C O Mitter <committer@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2006 00:05:00 +0000 Subject: [DIFFERENT_PREFIX 0/2] *** SUBJECT HERE *** - *** BLURB HERE *** A U Thor (2): - 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
