Well, it's attributed to Tejun, and he probably sent you a "git diff". The delete part of such a diff is pretty small, so you both probably missed it at the top of the diff: diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-integrator/clock.h b/arch/arm/mach-integrator/clock.h deleted file mode 100644 index e69de29..0000000 and then you used "git am -s" or something to apply it and delete that file. No "git commit -a" necessary - just a simple "git diff" after having done a "make distclean" and then sending the result off by email without looking any closer..
