Hi, and welcome to the Git community.

The patch itself may be fine, but you should probably read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for hints on the customs of this list. For example: We prefer patches _inline_ in the mail, so that it's easier to review and comment on them. The Documentation/SubmittingPatches also explains what is meant by a sign-off, and how to sign-off your patches.

Have fun! :)
