Hi Markus, It would be nice (but not strictly required) for patches 1-9 to be replies to (or references to) patch 0. git-send-email can do this; see --thread. > Markus Osterhoff (9): > [typo] spelling, punctuation in main README file > [typo] MAINTAINERS: redundant full stop removed > [typo] REPORTING-BUGS > [typo] COPYING: form feeds removed > [typo] CREDITS: capitalisation, punctuation > [typo] Doc/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt: several spellings > [typo] Doc/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt: sentence structure > [typo] Doc/CodingStyle, BUG-HUNTING, 00-INDEX > [typo] spelling, punctuation in Documentation/... Patches should have a Subject: like [PATCH 1/9] README: fix spelling and punctuation in main README file I would prefer for these to all go thru the trivial patch maintainer: Jiri Kosina That would involve adding the word "trivial" somewhere in the Subject line, like (e.g.) [PATCH 1/9 trivial] README: fix spelling and punctuation in main README file or [PATCH 1/9] trivial: fix spelling and punctuation in main README file I can ack patches 1-3 and 5-8: Acked-by: Randy Dunlap Thanks. > > COPYING | 10 +++++----- > CREDITS | 4 ++-- > Documentation/00-INDEX | 4 ++-- > Documentation/BUG-HUNTING | 10 +++++----- > Documentation/CodingStyle | 8 ++++---- > Documentation/HOWTO | 22 +++++++++++----------- > Documentation/ManagementStyle | 16 ++++++++-------- > Documentation/SecurityBugs | 2 +- > Documentation/SubmittingPatches | 4 ++-- > Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt | 18 +++++++++--------- > MAINTAINERS | 2 +- > README | 4 ++-- > REPORTING-BUGS | 4 ++-- > 13 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 54 deletions(-) > -- ~Randy
