I can add a sign-off if that would help, but it sounds like it was the wrong fix. I didn't know the right place to say it, but I figure: If there is a right place, then what is it? If there isn't one, saying it in the git-describe manpage is probably a good step for now. -- Ed Cashin <ecashin@xxxxxxxxxx> -- 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
