I'm using "git am -s" and that's not picking up your Signed-off-by line for some reason. Looking at the mail.... Oh, I see, your mail looked in part like: However, in order to save the client doing a COMMIT as a separate rpc, the server can reply back with NFS_FILE_SYNC copy. This patch proposed to add vfs_fsync() call at the end of the async copy. --- v2: moved the committed argument into the nfsd4_copy structure Signed-off-by: Olga Kornievskaia <kolga@xxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c | 14 +++++++++++++- fs/nfsd/xdr4.h | 1 + 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) But git uses "---" to mark the end of the changelog. That allows you to include the diffstat, or any other notes that you want included in the mail but not in the final changelog. That "v2:" note is probably also something that belongs in the mail but not the changelog, so in future if you just move that kind of thing to after the Signed-off-by line, git-am will do the right thing. --b.
