Cover letter is a single point where I can address the whole patchset, like that it's added to for-next or merged, or report bugs. Also you are going to write what are the changes between the revisions. The initial text does not need to be long if there's really nothing big behind, but please state that in advance. This sets the expectations before one is going through the patches. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
