Applied. It will be visible tonight via the ftp mirror.

One note about patch description. I would prefer to have the convention of the Linux kernel patches:

--- Short description line

Longer description

Signed-off-by: ...
---

A future export command with support for sendpatcheset will take the short description line and use it as a subject. Also, it would be nice for the longer description to be wrapped somewhere before column 80 (~72 would be OK).
