Ah, didn't know. I've seen this be done before, such as: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1759680/focus=1775068 and hence did the same. And searching case-insensitively "reply", "fresh", "new", "thread" in Documentation/SubmittingPatches shed no light on this topic. > The posting must also be properly formed, in that "Subject: " should > be of the form "[PATCH vx] ${subsystem}: Description." and the mail > message body must be the commit message with appropriate signoffs > and ACKs, then the patch comes next. > > This is fully described, in detail, in Documentation/SubmittingPatches Ah, OK, you meant: Please use git format-patch so that I could use git am. Did that. (Thanks, you made me learn about git format-patch by myself. That is, only describing the format makes you a teacher-who-let-the-padawan-find-the-right-tool-by-self-work instead of a teacher-who-gives-the-solution.) > > Would it be OK for me re-sending my part as v3 including Neil's ack? > > Or are you expecting a unique patch combining Neil's changes and mine? I went for a v3. Regards, Sylvain "ythier" Hitier -- Business is about being busy, not being rich...
