The logic here is that if it is a fix to the previous code, the original au= thor of that code should be informed. Currently the author must read the ma= iling-list carefully in order to ensure that no patches are missed, that fi= x code that they are the author of. The new workflow is the same as before: copy the output of "git fixline" in= to the commit message. The output would now be two lines as follows: Fixes: 17b8320a3e11 ("vhost: remove index parameter") cc: author@domain.com The following git fixline achieves this: git log -1 --abbrev=3D12 --format=3D"Fixes: %h (\"%s\")%nCC:%ae" Opinions? -Harry [1] http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/patches.html#commit-messages-bo= dy
