Three other minor style updates as well that would make my life a little easier:
* The sign-off type tags at the bottom of the email are kept in logical
chronological order (irrespective of actual chronological order). This means
that all signed-off-by tags go together followed by a reviewed-by tag
afterwards.
* Watch out for initial caps at the start of a commit title. [This will be
caught
by the check-git-log.sh script if you want to run that]
* The history updates from vN to vN+1 are best put after the signoffs and
prefixed
with a cutline, so that they get stripped automatically when the patch is
applied.
Otherwise I have to delete them manually from the commit message. The format of
the messages is therefore best done as:
bnxt: <title>
<commit message>
Signed-off-by: <author1>
Signed-off-by: <author2>
Reviewed-by: <reviewer1>
