The usual way of doing it is to place them (and any other text that is not intended to be committed) after three dashes. No fewer, no more, only three dashes. Why three dashes? Git-am(1) has the following: The patch is expected to be inline, directly following the message. Any line that is of the form: • three-dashes and end-of-line, or • a line that begins with "diff -", or • a line that begins with "Index: " is taken as the beginning of a patch, and the commit log message is terminated before the first occurrence of such a line. Notice the last sentence. You used eight dashes. Git-am(1) does not consider that pattern terminates the commit log message. There is no need for you to do anything. I've cleaned up the commit message and applied it to hyperv-next. I thought the above tidbit can help you (or anyone else who doesn't know about this and happens to read this lengthy email) in your future patch submission though. :-) Thanks, Wei.
