OK, thanks. It seems it is about commit one patch, and it also seems no "git pre-commit" command (my git version is "git version 1.7.7.6").
And do we have a tool to type a command to check all patches whether missing sign-offs? (I guess, the version integrator need not check patch one by one only for whether contents sign-offs).
Oh, I forgot one thing, the original "scripts/get_maintainers.pl" (e.g. in next-20130927), it is already smart enough. So can we treat our patch as the fix patch for the latest changes?
Thanks. -- Chen Gang
