No, the tags are used in any other resends, backports etc while traveling through different trees.

If you cherry-pick, rebase, merge, you always get the content of ---. The same as typical changelog (not cover letter but one in the patch) - you keep it after --- and it does not disappear. > > Adding them under the '---' doesn't work when the purpose of them is > to keep the recipients list in Git history. This I understand, what I did not understand (and you did not explain) is what would be the purpose to keep them in Git history. What is the point to have them in commit log of 10 year old commit?
