Subject: [PATCH 0/6] SubmittingPatches: update and flesh out trailer sections
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2026 00:22:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CV_SubPatches_trailers.8f3@msgid.xyz> (raw)
From: Kristoffer Haugsbakk <code@khaugsbakk.name>
Topic name: kh/submitting-patches-trailers
Topic summary: Flesh out and update the trailer sections.
All of these points have come up on the mailing list. At least for me.
And `Based-on-patch-by` is a nice-to-have documented kind of thing.
I have had these lying around since January since I got distracted. I just
wrote this cover letter today. But I think this still makes sense.
[1/6] SubmittingPatches: encourage trailer use for substantial help
[2/6] SubmittingPatches: discuss non-ident trailers
[3/6] SubmittingPatches: discourage common Linux trailers
[4/6] SubmittingPatches: document Based-on-patch-by trailer
[5/6] SubmittingPatches: be consistent with trailer markup
[6/6] SubmittingPatches: note that trailer order matters
