BTW I have no clue why not, if I keep your S-o-b in the first place, and document the changes. In other projects maintainers rewrite contributors' patches even, and (at best) credit the contributor with a tag. I think it's entirely in a maintainer's jurisdiction to adapt the commit message as he sees fit. It may be idiosyncratic, and you can yell at me for it; but all that will do is convince me to avert my eyes when you post an OvmfPkg patch. Whenever you contribute to a project, do you always start with making a huge noise, calling everyone around (or their rules) insane, "makes no sense at all", and so on? The stuff we've been operating by thus far have been mostly okay. I have updated a few commit messages as well, and haven't received complaints. The operational changes you are force-feeding the project (or the rate thereof) seem to surpass all the changes it has undergone since I started participating. CRLF has been working out for most people. Rebasing patches has been working out. Staying away from non-ASCII in commit messages ditto. Keeping full context when quoting patches ditto. You want edk2 to change its ways in all aspects at once. And since I seem to be the guy who talks to you the most, I'm the one you yell at the most. I've never experienced this before. I'm stunned.
