This is fine for cover letter, not for the commits. After your analysis software finds an issue you should manually analyze what is wrong and document that to the commit message. This applies to sparse, coccinelle or any other tool. Tool-based commit messages are bad for commit history where as clean description gives idea what was done (if you have to maintain a GIT tree). In my opinion tool is doing all the work but the part that you should do is absent. > Regards, > Markus /Jarkko
