I'm subscribed to your git tree and filter out all updates for my
signed off by. An then I get those emails. So I get the "Pulled"
message regardless.

It's not really for you, but more for transparency in general. I have a
rule that I don't push anything to you that I haven't personally sent
to LKML as a separate patch.

It's not a big deal. I could make this a two step process, and send
these as my "for-next" patches so that people (including the authors of
the patch) know that I'm sending them upstream.

I don't personally much care, but the pr-tracker-bot clearly does.

If you don't care about the automated "it's been pulled" message, that
doesn't matter, of course.

That said, I'd almost prefer to get just the regular pull request
without the patches. If the complete patch is small, it's often nice
to see that _in_ the pull request (at the bottom), but I don't
generally need or want the individual patches themselves as separate
emails (unless there's some particular reason you want me to comment
on something, or apply them directly as patches).

Interesting. This is how I've always sent patches to you via quilt.

I usually don't put fixes sent to me through for-next, as I haven't
been convinced that that helps any. I make it a requirement to send any
patch I push into my tree for merging as a separate patch. As I usually
do that when I push to linux-next, if I send directly to you, I will
then send them individually.

The point being, when I send individual patches directly to you (and
not as a single email pull request), I use quilt sendmail. Which will
append the "[PATCH 0/x]" before my cover message subject.

Should I work on changing this?

Pulled and pushed out, but for some reason the pr-tracker-bot doesn't
seem to have reacted.

Presumably there's something in your git pull message that means it
doesn't trigger.

And I suspect I know what it is: the patch that your subject line
starts with "[PATCH..]" instead of "[GIT PULL..]"
