Link is not enough, because it will end in git. You'll have to excuse me for my ignorance: I have some knowledge of how git and the kernel work as programs, but none at all of how they are actually managed by the Powers That Be. So, what does it mean to "sign off", where should I append the explanations, which git repository will/might it end in, and how am I supposed to do things the right way? I mean, so far I'm just expecting people to read the patch and perhaps test it, but certainly not commit it anywhere "serious"... Pointers are an acceptable answer, of course. -- David A.
