Ciao, Thorsten The fix was already merged by Linus on Friday, see: git.kernel.org/linus/8dd601fa8317243be887458c49f6c29c2f3d719f But moving forward I have no interest in sprinkling external metadata references in Linux commit headers. Seems more like you're engineering something that gives you, and possibly a select few others, meaning but that is make work for all Linux maintainers. Mike
