That makes the patch rather difficult to apply. Some e-mail clients do that right, some do not. Often copying and pasting the text from a terminal also does the unwanted conversion. Patches are best sent using git send-email; it's made for that purpose. If you were already using git, you're quite close. So in this case, I'd like to ask you to take the diff you sent in the earlier e-mail, and send the resulting patch using git send-email so it can be merged. And, now that this is not really an RFC anymore, the subject prefix should be "PATCH" instead of "RFC". There's more documentation in Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst . -- Kind regards, Sakari Ailus
