Yep, I love it, exactly what I wanted to replace my own checkpatch script 
wrapper!

Testing this out here, I find that git format-patch includes the diff stats
in the output, which then can trigger long-line warnings for the commit message.

        WARNING:COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE: Possible unwrapped commit description 
(prefer a maximum 75 chars per line)
        #8:
         examples/my-new-test-app/basicfwd.c | 342

To fix this, I suggest replacing "format-patch --stdout" with "show 
--format=email"
since that should give the same output just without the change stats.
