How do I add the description of the patch. Could you, please, use inline replying? We've asked that at least four times already. Regarding the description of the patch, just write it as the commit comment in your local git repository. Using git-format-patch will pick the commit comment up and put it into the email message file you'll then send to the mailing list using git-send-email. It's all rather simple and straightforward. > On Wed, 11 Oct 2023 at 4:34 PM, Dragan Simic > wrote: > >> On 2023-10-11 17:24, Isoken June Ibizugbe wrote: >>> This patch improves the consistency and clarity of error messages >>> across Git commands.
