There are unbound number of kinds of trailers people would want to add, depending on their projects' needs. We should not have to add a specific support for a tailer like this one, before thinking through to see if we can add generic support for adding arbitrary trailers to avoid code and interface bloat.
Think of the existing --signoff as a historical mistake. Such a generic "adding arbitrary trailers" support, when done properly, should be able to express what "--signoff" does, and we should be able to redo "--signoff" as a special case of that generic "adding arbitrary trailers" support, and at that point, "Fixes:" trailer the kernel project wants to use should fall out as a natural consequence. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
