Hi,

that's not the way you would like it to work.
It happens that some maintainers make some small adjustments in the
commit message or the patch itself.

The patch is good enough for me. If you can not accept the additional
small clean-up, or don't have time to tweak it by yourself, or by anyone
else, please, just reject it.
The issue I propose to fix is minor and unlikely to happen anyway.

If anyone else cares to update the proposal, please do.


I don't want to discuss your motivation, I understand them.

But please, do also understand mine and do not require too futile things
from hobbyists.

Spending time only to remove a CR because it does not match your quality
standard or your expectation of what a patch is, is of no interest for me.
That's why I told I would not send a V2.


It is up to you to accept it as-is, update it or reject it, according to
the value you think this patch has.

Hoping for your understanding and sorry for wasting your time.

Best regards,
CJ
