Yes, I saw that after sending the mail. Usually I add a signed-off-by with 'git --amend -s' when I add the history, so it goes before the '---' I'm adding.
This time I must have forgotten the '-s' so it was added by the 'git format-patch -s' which is in my submit script, and so it was added at the end.
It's not really a big deal, up to Michael to either move it at the right place or discard it, I don't really mind. Do the easiest for you.
Thanks Christophe
