Subject: [PATCH] CONTRIBUTING: Accept patches in attachments
Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2023 12:10:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231222111014.9663-2-alx@kernel.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 957 bytes --]

I use mutt(1), which works fine with patches as attachments, and the
mailing list archives also work fine with attachments.  Let's accept
attachments.

Any objections?
