31Subject: [PATCH] another patch
32Here is a patch from A U Thor. This addresses the issue raised in the
34message:
35From: Nit Picker <nit.picker@example.net>
37Subject: foo is too old
38Message-Id: <nitpicker.12121212@example.net>
39Hopefully this would fix the problem stated there.
41I have included an extra blank line above, but it does not have to be
44stripped away here, along with the
45whitespaces at the end of the above line. They are expected to be squashed
46when the message is made into a commit log by stripspace,
47Also, there are three blank lines after this paragraph,
48two truly blank and another full of spaces in between.
49
51Hope this helps.

236The git-cvsimport-script had a copule of small bugs that prevented me
238from importing a big CVS repository.
239The first was that it didn't handle removed files with a multi-digit
241primary revision number.
242The second was that it was asking the CVS server for "F" messages,
244although they were not handled.
245I also updated the documentation for that script to correspond to
247actual flags.

521textlive-* исправлены на texlive-*
523docutils заменён на python-docutils
524Действительно, оказалось, что rest2web вытягивает за собой
526python-docutils. В то время как сам rest2web не нужен.

568Subject: [PATCH] BLAH ONE
570In real life, we will see a discussion that inspired this patch
572discussing related and unrelated things around >8 scissors mark
573in this part of the message.
574Subject: [PATCH] BLAH TWO
576And then we will see the scissors.
578 This line is not a scissors mark -- >8 -- but talks about it.

581Subject: [PATCH] Teach mailinfo to ignore everything before -- >8 -- mark
583From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
584This teaches mailinfo the scissors -- >8 -- mark; the command ignores
586everything before it in the message body.
