But. Do you really think I can apply a patch that looks like this above? I have to edit the text of the email before I apply it. Now I'm a bit grumpy about this at the moment as Linus yelled at me for patches where I missed this on a few for the 3.2 merge window, so I'm going to push back on people now very hard. Please send this in a format that I can run 'git am' on the email you send me. I could not do that here, otherwise we would end up with a duplicate header in the changelog message. Yes, it makes you do a bit more work, but when you are handling thousands of patches like me, you scale better than I do :) Actually, it's just making you do it properly, along with everyone else, which is a good thing, right? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
