Subject: [PATCH b4] b4: Ignore Signed-off-by trailers in follow-up replies
Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2026 16:47:08 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260808164708.1084648-1-smostafa@google.com> (raw)
When someone replies to a patch thread, sometimes they include a
Signed-off-by trailer (for example, when providing inline diffs or
snippets in a reply). Currently, b4 am/shazam collect these tags
from replies and append them to the main patch's trailers.
I am not aware of any use case when collecting the Signed-off-by
is needed, so drop it in this case.

I hit this when using:
b4 shazam -v1 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260806150105.4010701-1-smostafa@google.com/
It collected the tag from Marc's patch in my patch as in:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260808085824.732659-4-smostafa@google.com/
Which is wrong.
