Looks good, thanks.  If you needed some MUA trick that other
people might benefit from please feel free to send a patch to
Documentation/SubmittingPatches "MUA specific hints" section.

Except "Subject: [PATCH] blah", commit log message (in this case
what you would have on the Subject line is to the point and you
would not need any extra log message), "Signed-off-by: whom",
and perhaps "---\n".  Material that you do not want to have in
the final commit message, like "How about this" and diffstat if
you have one, would come after the "---\n" line.

Your message formatted in the preferred way becomes like this:

	Subject: [PATCH] read-cache.c: use xcalloc() not calloc()

	Elsewhere we use xcalloc(); we should consistently do so.
