I was originally trying to figure out what the idea behind this patch
was, as I recalled discussing the patch before. Then I double checked
the mailing list and saw:

https://inbox.sourceware.org/gcc-patches/20240131214259.142253-1-vincenzopalazzo...@gmail.com/T/#u

One thing that can potentially reduce confusion here is:

- use git send-email -v2 to mark the patch as an update to an existing
  patch.

- Use the --annotate option, and edit the patch before sending it. Right
  here, after the "---" and in the same semantic patch section as the
  diffstat, you can put arbitrary non-patch commentary. It is
  essentially comments for patches -- it won't be included in the commit
  message when the patch is applied with `git am`. It is common to
  insert something that looks like this:


v2: moved the flake to contrib/ instead of installing it at the root of
the repository
