Subject: [PATCH maintainer-tools 3/3] dim.rst: update CONTRIBUTING instructions
Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2017 12:15:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170405111525.32602-3-eric.engestrom@imgtec.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170405111525.32602-1-eric.engestrom@imgtec.com>

Suggest using git-config instead of a flag on format-patch.
While at it, use the more common "PATCH foo" subject prefix.
