Two wrongs don't make a right. And it's not like not submitting changes is wrong, although granted it's not ideal. (I'd say removing attribution from a git commit is even worse. If you're doing the equivalent of a cherry pick, you should preserve the Author field. Even if you're doing some cleanup work, as the maintainer I generally preserve the Author line, and will simply add the fact that I did some cleanup to the commit body. The question is who did more work; the person who originally submitted the code, or the person who did the cleanup.) - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
