I had this wish, too. That makes a lot of sense for merge commits, although it doesn't work well with our current workflow I would presume, because the merge commit happens at a different time than when Junio picks up a patch series. And in the mean time, where would we store the cover letter information to not get lost? Note there are some external recordings instead of adding it to the history itself, e.g. https://github.com/trast/git/tree/notes/gmane annotated each commit with pointers to the mailing list archive. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
