So here is the hopefully final round. I think the first one is good, but the second one is of dubious and possibly negative value (for the reasons, see its proposed log message), so I am undecided.

Junio C Hamano (2):
  format-patch: allow --rfc to optionally take a value, like --rfc=WIP
  format-patch: "--rfc=-(WIP)" appends to produce [PATCH (WIP)]
