Hi Duncan,

I think you need to include comments about the patch that you would
like to convey about it in the email, but not in the commit log in
git, in the Commit-notes: section for patman to find.

From the patman README:
>>>>
Commit-notes:
blah blah
blah blah
more blah blah
END
        Similar, but for a single commit (patch). These notes will appear
        immediately below the --- cut in the patch file.
<<<<

Outside of that section, you need to include a detailed description of
what the patch does and why. This is what Wolfgang is expecting to
see.

Thanks,
-Joe
