There was no link from the BZ to the patch however. And it wasn't possible to determine whether you were going to add the link later. I tend to add the link immediately after posting, so I don't forget. My experience tell me that most patch submitters that don't add the link at once forget for good. Yes, it was a generalization, sorry about that. One thing I do have to admit (because I brought up GitHub.com before) is that, on GitHub.com, if you submit a pull request, and at least one of the commit messages references an Issue (like your commit message here references TianoCore#2563), then the issue automatically gets an update. So in that regard GitHub.com does save some manual work. Laszlo -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
