Hi All,

I propose to add CC: <author> to the output of the git fixline command[1].

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
