From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sun, 11 Jun 2006 22:40:24 GMT Subject: git-applymbox broken? Message-ID: It looks like something has broken git-applymbox lately. The "From: authorname" lines are no longer removed from the message, and are duplicated in the commit log. This has resulted in several recent kernel commits looking like this: commit c0bbbc73d58f1b774cd987b5687a478a027f137c Author: Christoph Lameter Date: Sun Jun 11 15:22:26 2006 -0700 [PATCH] typo in vmscan.c From: Christoph Lameter Looks like a comma was left from the conversion from a struct to an assignment. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds where that "From:" in the body is totally wrong. I just didn't notice, until now. Arrr! I _suspect_ that this is the work by Eric Biederman, ie part of the patches that do "Allow in body headers beyond the in body header prefix." and "Refactor commit messge handling." Eric? Can you please fix this up? Lines from the body of the email that have been used to set authorship should _not_ also show up in the commit message. Linus
