Sure, no problem. But just to make it clear (please forgive my ignorance), my original message for the patch contained quite a detailed explanation of what it does. I assume that was too long, and you need a 1-2 lines summary to use for the commit? Of course this is not to say that the detailed explanation should be missing, only that you need the brief summary as well. Is my understanding correct? Thanks. -- D.
