Probably I should have added extra newline, or maybe even another --- line below the changes in order to not trigger the patch-bot message and make it more readable. Maybe I should also explicitly use "V1 -> V2" instead of "v2" when listing changes? I am trying to understand the filtering rules that are in use, in order to avoid this situation in the future. I see that in Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst there is an extra newline after listed changes, would it be enough? Thanks, Dominik Karol
