A tangent.

Because this "-- " is a conventional signature separator, MUAs like
Emacs message-mode seems to omit everything below it from the quote
while responding, making it cumbersome to comment on the tbdiff.

Something to think about if somebody is contemplating on adding more
to format-patch's cover letter.

This is quite unfortunate.  I wonder if it is easy to tell
range-diff that certain differences in the log message are to be
ignored so that we can show that the first patch is unchanged in a
case like this.  This series has 4 really changed ones with 2
otherwise unchanged ones shown all as changed, which is not too bad,
but for a series like sb/diff-colro-move-more reroll that has 9
patches, out of only two have real updated patches, showing
otherwise unchanged 7 as changed like this hunk does would make the
cover letter useless.  It is a shame that adding range-diff to the
cover does have so much potential.
