Oh, regarding Cc stable - don't actually send the mail there if you can

What do you mean? Are you saying: It must be tagged, but 'git
send-email' should not actually add the Cc field in the mail header.
What is the story here? Guess I missed a memo ;-)
As far as I remember Greg just ignores the patches sent to the list and
picks them up when they hit Linus's tree instead (i.e. follows the
commit logs with like 'git log --grep "Cc: stable"') so there's no value
in actually sending out email, it's just noise.
So far it has worked for me, so I think it must be right :)
But there are LTS kernels not maintained by Greg like 3.12 and 3.16. How
about these? If sending patches to stable@kernel org is optional then
it's better to kill that list or silently drop emails send to this list
so no errors are returned for this address.
