Junio, I think you are the author of git-am.sh. What does this line do? git-am.sh line 375: case "$keep_subject" in -k) SUBJECT="[PATCH] $SUBJECT" ;; esac It appears to do nothing. It has existed since the beginning of git-am.sh, and there has never been another reference to $keep_subject in this script. Is it possible that $keep_subject is supposed to be $keep? -brandon -- 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
