[PATCH] Add configuration variable for sign-off to format-patch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If you regularly create patches which require a Signed-off: line you may
want to make it your default to add that line. It also helps you not to forget
to add the -s/--signoff switch.
