Mikulas, *please* fix whatever scripts you (and apparently some other
people) use that causes the subject line to be repeated as the first
line of the body of the email too..
Whatever it is, it's annoying. I can edit the emails, but I know for a
fact that others don't, and sometimes I miss it too. Resulting in
commit messages that have that silly duplication. There are too many
examples of this in the kernel logs already, let's put an end to it.
The rule is:
- the subject line is the summary line of the patch
- if you want to explicitly add a summary line in the body (because
your subject line is something else - maybe you're replying in a
thread and don't want to break the thread subject), you can do it by
having
Subject: summary-line-goes-here
the more common cases being that you want to specify authorship or
original date (which will obviously be set specifically and perhaps
not the way you like it in the mail headers).
But just repeating the summary line is *BROKEN*. What broken
scripts/scms do this crap?
